WHY CHOOSE THE NEW ZEALAND EDUCATION?

Equal opportunities

New Zealand's education system believes in giving everyone equal opportunities by providing teachers and students with the tools they require to succeed in their goals. Not all students are the same, so high school (secondary) level education in New Zealand not only focuses on academic achievement but also practical achievement. The education system focuses on open-mindedness which allows students to learn and grow in a way that works for them - their high school experience can be tailored to their needs to help them succeed.

Whether your goals are of academic achievement, personal development, or challenging yourself, every student has the opportunity to achieve their goals. Study in New Zealand provides:

• Focused, personal attention from passionate and caring teachers
• Balance of practical and theoretical learning
• Encouragement to think creatively, independently & analytically
• Wide range of subjects that cater to your goals
• National and international qualifications that are easily transferable

Safety and security

New Zealand is ranked the 2nd most peaceful country by the Global Peace Index. It's also the 2nd least corrupt nation in the world, according to the Transparency International Corruption Perception Index.

All of these qualities make New Zealand the best choice for parents and students alike who are looking for a country that is safe and reliable.
