Tauranga Boys' College aims to be "Best for Boys" by being dedicated exclusively to meeting the educational, social and developmental needs of boys as they journey from boyhood to manhood.

Our unwavering focus is on being better than before. We have a commitment to continuous improvement as we challenge our boys to strive for excellence in academic, sporting and cultural activities in a male context. Boys are challenged to inquire and to reflect on their actions and to be motivated to achieve their potential. We provide a supportive environment with strong leadership, clear direction, and high expectations.

We are proud of our school's traditions and its heritage, whilst being firmly focused on preparing our young men to face the challenges of the future. I invite you as an International Student to be part of our College and its future and therefore look forward to meeting you.

While young men and boys can and do excel in many types of educational institutions, schools for boys focus with intention on learning that addresses not only how to excel in academics but also how to grow into a young man of integrity and empathy.

In engaging and supportive single-sex environments, students explore their values and establish a foundation for making responsible decisions; they explore their own definitions of self, who they are and who they want to become; they learn to forge healthy relationships; they step out of their comfort zone to explore their full potential.
