Rangitoto College has four strategic fundamentals in teaching and learning that drive the curriculum direction in the school; the behaviour curriculum, the knowledge-rich curriculum, the school teaching principles and Mātauranga Māori.

Our scholarship programme is both challenging and engaging, designed to stretch each student’s abilities and prepare them for success in the NZQA Scholarship exams. With a broad curriculum, we offer dedicated scholarship classes within the timetable, giving students the chance to concentrate on developing the skills they’ll need for academic success at the highest level.

Rangitoto College is a dual pathway school offering both NZQA and the globally recognised International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma programme. 

Our students share how our dual pathways options, the College’s scholarship classes, as well as extra-curricular opportunities, have enhanced their competencies, academic outcomes, cognitive dexterity and interpersonal skills.
