PITA is for school students in year 11-13 wishing to gain a career in Agriculture.
The PITA programme is for students who are still in school in years 11-13. On PITA you spend one day a week either with a tutor doing assessments and earning credits towards your level 2 & 3 NCEA, or out on a farm getting practical experience. Some of our students also work with horses or in vet practices. In the first year you do a general course in agriculture and in your second year you can choose to specialise in either dairy or sheep. By the end of the course you will have valuable credits for your NCEA and a
National Certificate in Agriculture Level 2 - Introductory skills and a National Certificate in Agriculture Level 2 - Strands (dairy or sheep). This gives you a great step up whether you want to go on to tertiary study, go into the workforce or come to Taratahi fulltime.
