Auckland, some students come from the west coast of the island and some students from the east coast. Wellsford town, where the school is situated, is central to all these communities.
Rodney College offers a comprehensive range of
subjects at all levels. Junior secondary students study
up to 11 subjects per year and they must study English,
Mathematics, Science, Social Science, Physical
Education and Health. Year 11 and Year 12 students must
select six subjects from a range of options and in Year
11 English, Mathematics and Science is compulsory. In
Year 13 students take only fi ve subjects and use their one study period per day to work independently. On the Auckland Secondary School league table we are ranked
8th out of 72 schools for University Entrance and Scholarship pass rates. Students staying for a school calendar year in senior school are expected to sit NCEA papers at the end of the year. NCEA qualifi cations are recognised in Europe, USA, Australia, UK, Canada and South America.
For students coming in to the school with little English then without incurring any extra cost, the student can participate in ESOL language classes. The student will be main streamed once their English is at a competent level. They may attend an ESOL class for one or two periods per day within the school, as well as their regular mainstreamed classes.
All International students are placed in a home stay whose family has been visited and approved by the International Education Department.
