Nga Tawa’s exceptional curriculum caters for diverse interests and abilities. Designed to grow the individual talents of each student, the curriculum exposes junior students to a wide range of subjects while senior students are able to specialise further. This provides them with both a strong knowledge base and the freedom to develop in areas of passion and interest.

Students are provided with a choice of two educational pathways, as Nga Tawa offers both the National Certificate of Educational Achievement and the International Baccalaureate Diploma programme. All courses prepare students to make a difference to their community and the world. We offer an impressive range of over 30 subjects, from the fundamental subjects of Maths, English and Sciences to the more contemporary studies of Visual Arts, Tourism and Travel and, of course, our popular Equine Studies Programme.

Class sizes are kept small. In the junior school class sizes are kept between 20 and 25, most are less, while in the senior school most classes have less than 18 students.
