Macleans College is relatively new, but since its founding in 1980 it has established a deserved reputation for high performance in the core business area of academic success. This is complemented by a highly prized value system based on the unique whanau house concept, and the active support of an extensive programme of co-curricular activities. We constantly take pride in the excellent calibre of our staff, and the professionalism and support of our Board of Trustees. The mission of Macleans College is, within the resources available to us, to work with the local community to create a school where every student is educated to achieve his or her full potential as a whole person; to create opportunities, expand horizons, reward effort and encourage excellence in the efficient, disciplined, caring and supportive environment of the whanau house system; to foster equity, respect, self worth, interpersonal skills and a worthwhile value system, so enabling each student to make a lifelong positive contribution to society.

Often referred to as ‘The Grammar Way’, Auckland Grammar School sets its standards very high, demanding excellence across all aspects of daily life. While providing young men with a rigorous academic education, each young man in turn is expected to pursue excellence in acquiring knowledge and skills while embracing the School’s values. These values are core to upholding the School’s position of pre-eminence in boys’ secondary education. They are integrity, excellence, respect, courage, pride, commitment and humility. Through teaching and practising these values, we hope to develop in our students valuable personal qualities such as self-discipline, resourcefulness, adaptability, creativity, honesty, courtesy, self-reliance, healthy self-esteem, pride in personal appearance and public spirit, with the aim of using these virtues for the good of the School and the community.
