Year 11 Future Problem Solving (11FPS)

This course has a Science base and is a merger of Problem Solving and Future Studies from the Junior Innovation Stream programme. The capabilities of Critical Thinking and Self Management are further developed within the course. Students will be exposed to biology, chemistry, and physics with an emphasis on real-world applications, future-focused industry, and environmental sustainability.

The course will have a choice of Level 1 credits, and must be taken with 11CFD/11APH and 11CPS. The three courses work together to create Year 11 Innovation Stream.  Teachers monitor students' NCEA progress closely and can tailor the topics and standards as required. Future Problem Solving can lead to any Year 12 Science learning area courses, depending on the choices that the students make.
