Values and vision
ACG Senior College aims to work towards making its students digital world citizens. The school aims to be the best provider it possibly can for all students. Students are not only encouraged to excel academically but also as members of the Auckland community. It is believed that students, as mature young adults, should be ready to take responsibility for their own learning, thus preparing the way for them to have a successful transfer to tertiary studies. At the school, it is also firmly believed that education is a partnership that both teachers and students should enjoy. The school has therefore affirmed its commitment to helping each student develop a lifelong love of learning.
