What we do
Practical planning and hands-on application support—whether you are moving as a family, choosing a school for your child, or returning to study as an adult.
Family education planning
When a parent and child are both moving, timing and budget have to work as one plan. We map out your child’s schooling and your own study together, decide who starts first and when, and set out a timeline the whole household can follow.
School selection
For primary, intermediate and secondary students, we help you shortlist suitable schools, check year levels, current places and English support directly with each school, and coordinate the enrolment.
University entry and applications
Comparing direct entry, foundation and pathway options for bachelor’s and master’s programmes—matching entry requirements to your background and supporting you through application and enrolment.
Adult study and career change
Starting from your existing qualifications and work experience, we help you clarify what you actually need to study, shortlist practical programmes, and prepare a clear application.
Study tours
Short-term visits to see New Zealand schools and campuses in person—arranging school visits where available so your family can experience the environment before committing to a long-term plan.
How we work: a plan built from your goal
- Start from the goal: Before looking at course lists, we look at what comes after study—further education, a career change, or your family’s next stage—and work back to what, where and when to study.
- Compare the options: We set out a primary plan and a realistic back-up, weighing the trade-offs of each against your background, English level, budget and timeline.
- Confirm with the schools: We verify year levels, entry requirements and available places directly with schools and course providers.
- Follow through to enrolment: Our support continues through document preparation, applications, Offer of Place, tuition payment and arrival readiness. After you start, our Auckland team can also provide agreed ongoing local support.
