The College offers all students a comprehensive range of subjects from Year 9 to Year 13 leading to the National Certificate of Educational Achievement (NCEA) Levels 1-3, as well as the Scholarship level. Awatapu College students have a very good record of success in these national qualifications.
We believe that all students are capable of learning, and that it is our responsibility to ensure that each of them uses their ability to reach their fullest potential. To this end, considerable emphasis is placed on ensuring that our classrooms are stimulating, well disciplined environments.
For current subjects please download the Awatapu College Prospectus.
Partnership with Parents
Personal Contact Between College and Parents
The College places a great emphasis on working with parents. We believe that a partnership between school and home is crucial to creating a positive and effective learning climate. To help foster that relationship, the Heads of House remain with their year level as it progresses through the school.
The Heads of House and teachers will generally initiate contact if concerns are being expressed about a student's progress. At the same time, the College encourages parents to contact the appropriate Head or Form Teacher if either the parent or student has concerns about progress.
All Heads of House are available by email, phone and voice mail.
