Academic Excellence: Striving for the best

Loving Learning

Our exam results are excellent and we remain one of the top-performing academic schools in the country, with achievement being 20% above the national average in all three levels of NCEA, University Entrance and Scholarship. 

Our results for all levels put us in the top three highest performing schools in Otago and our Scholarship results for girls are also in the top two schools in Dunedin. We have talented staff and a strong culture of learning here. We are especially proud to make the Crimson List - Top 50 New Zealand Schools 2024 - for gaining admission to the World's Top Universities. In 2020 we were awarded Top Scholar in New Zealand for Media Studies, French and Sculpture. This means that our students achieved the highest mark in all of New Zealand for those Scholarship subjects. 

We have gained the highest number of University of Otago Entrance Scholarships in New Zealand for the past five years. Learning is at the heart of everything we do and, like you, we know the value of a strong education that we take with us for all of our life.
