Gore High School welcomes the opportunity to enrol international students who are keen to experience the New Zealand education system, improve their English as well as gain New Zealand secondary school qualifications. We welcome international students at all year levels and encourages all students to become fully immersed in the life of the school. We foster a culture of innovation and excellence, underpinned by traditional values.
Students will benefit from small class sizes, enthusiastic and dedicated teachers, excellent pastoral care, outstanding facilities,
a strong academic programme, and a wide range of cultural and sporting activities.
Learning programmes include a wide range of subjects which they study alongside our Kiwi students and in so doing they
build friendships which in turn will help them to acquire conversational English. We offer English support programmes so that International students are given the necessary skills to succeed. An ESOL programme is available to all International Students studying towards IELTS.
Gore High School is a signatory to the Code of Practice for the Pastoral Care of International Students published by the
New Zealand Ministry of Education.
We employ trained staff to look after our International Students. They ensure that all of the students needs are met during
their stay. Homestay accommodation with New Zealand families is arranged for students to suits their interests.
