2016
ADMINISTRATION GUIDELINES
RESERVING PLACES ON COURSESYou are now able to reserve places for 2016. Please use the booking sheet provided (photocopy as required). Booking sheets should be emailed to [email protected]. All reservations must be made in writing. Student names are not required at the time of reservation but it is imperative that the STAR Office receives names at least two weeks prior to course commencement.
Please do not reserve places on courses if you are not confident that you can fill them – this results in students from other schools missing out on courses they are keen to attend.
You will note on the timetable that there is a maximum number of students per school, per class – this was a suggestion made by several schools. This will be waivered closer to course commencement if places have not been filled.
CANCELLATIONS
Cancellations should be made at least 10 working days prior to course commencement. Schools who cancel reservations within 10 working days of course commencement WILL BE INVOICED for fees, unless the STAR Office is able to find a replacement student from another school.
VENUES
STAR Co-ordinators will be sent an email reminder approximately 1 week prior to course commencement advising where students should meet on the first day of their course. The meeting area will be one of the following:
SC = South Campus Meeting area is L Block Reception – accessed via Gate 1.
(Baking and Pastry, Computer Aided Design, Engineering and Trades, Nursing (until further notice), Hair styling,)
NC = North Campus Reception Area at ND Building – accessed via Gate 11. (Inclusive Education for students with special needs) Reception area at NT Building – accessed via Gate 14. (Culinary & Hospitality Studies – excluding Baking and Pastry) Z = Lovegrove Crescent Meeting area is Z Block Reception – accessed via Gate 18.
(Creative Arts)
MIT Manukau Meeting area is Reception – Level 2 (Business Administration, Logistics)
In all instances the students will be met by either the STAR Administrator or the course tutor and taken to their classroom.
ATTENDANCE
Please ensure that the students you enrol in the STAR courses are able to start on the first day and are committed to attend 100% of the course. Students who are involved in sport or other school commitments don’t always reap the full benefit of courses due to absence and therefore we can not guarantee that students will achieve the unit standard or attendance requirements.
Students wishing to leave MIT during class times must report to the STAR Office prior to leaving.
Please ensure that your students have access to the required PPE (personal protection equipment) for the Trades courses; ie: Automotive Engineering, Motor Body Trades, Carpentry Construction. Further information on required PPE is covered in the Careers Express under the Trades courses.
