A school unlike any other

The founders of Altum Classical Academy have a vision of cultivating wise, articulate young people, equipped to lead fulfilling lives. Alongside the knowledge-rich curriculum, each student will also learn the value of self-discipline, kindness and respect.

It's been observed that young people exposed to this kind of education don’t tend to sit around twiddling their thumbs, but go on to make valuable contributions to their community, economy and nation.

When Altum Classical Academy opens next year it will operate as a charter high school without fees or a prescribed curriculum. Starting with years 7, 8 and 9, Altum intends to add a new year level each year until the school has built up to the full complement of years 7 to 13, by 2030. Interest is high and as awareness grows, and we expect the 100 places for the coming year will quickly be filled.

Visit the site and meet the teachers

Things are developing quickly over at Altum Academy’s site in Wilton, Wellington; and if a drive-by isn’t enough to satisfy your curiosity, you’ll get a better look at the facilities on one of our upcoming Open Days.
