Description

Our Vision:

KingsWay School is a co-educational, non-denominational Christian school of around 1400 students from New Entrants through to Year 13. The Middle and Senior Schools are situated on the same campus, on 10 acres of well-resourced facilities. The Primary School is situated on a separate Junior campus within easy walking distance of the Senior Campus and is well renowned for being an innovative, modern 21st Century learning environment. 
Our vision for KingsWay graduates is that they may be confident, connected, actively involved, lifelong learners who embody the Christian special character of the school.

KingsWay School has established a reputation for producing outstanding academic results being amongst the top in the country. The latest New Zealand Education Review Office report states Kingsway School has highly effective systems to maintain the quality of both education and pastoral care for international students. Students’ progress towards achievement is well monitored. International students are well integrated into the school’s educational, community and cultural experiences. Our educational programme is innovative, reflecting best practice and catering for a broad academic range. We aim to empower students to exercise their talents responsibly by leading a fulfilling life as disciples of Jesus Christ and making an active contribution as servant leaders towards social justice and the common good.

KingsWay School offers placements to students for a minimum of one year. Their English needs to be of a level to integrate into subject classes. For senior school students wishing to continue to study at a university, the ideal start time is in Year 10 (about age 14) to enable their English to develop adequately to cope with the demands in Senior School and for the students to achieve their maximum potential.

The application process is outlined on our website. All of the enrolment forms can be downloaded at:
