WCI schools are genuinely outstanding and distinctively Wellington. They share the values, ethos and unerring ambition of Wellington College, and are all authentically Wellington. They are not clones of Wellington however, but from a shared vision they deliver exceptional quality education that is brought vividly to life through a dialogue between pedagogies and cultures, and uniquely tailored to their communities. It is this shared vision that now delivers so much enrichment to the intellectual and cultural development of our students and their communities across the whole Group.
