Macleans College has earned a reputation as a world-class school with students that deliver results of the very highest standard and with the values and attributes that prepare them for successful lives beyond school.
Macleans College is set in a “garden suburb” environment overlooking the blue waters and islands of the Hauraki Gulf, a lovely setting. The school is situated approximately 40 minutes from the centre of Auckland City, and 40 minutes from Auckland International Airport. The school is composed of a number of modern buildings in an attractive, well maintained garden setting.
Students are assigned to one of eight Houses or “Whānau”, each containing about 310 students and functioning as a small “school within a school”. The Whānau Houses provide a more personal and caring environment than organisation as a single large school could provide.

Macleans College has one of the largest International Student bodies of any school in New Zealand. International Students from 20 different countries attend Macleans College.
Macleans College has a deserved reputation for high performance in academic success and results in external exams regularly place the school among the top in New Zealand.
