I had a debate here, (I’m from Newlands College;) I wasn’t feeling too good about it because I was subbed in last minute, BUT THEY GAVE US HOT CROSS BUNS!

Made me feel way better – the students and staff were friendly – seems like a good school 🙂

An extremely well laid-out set of buildings with lots of resources to accommodate all students. The music department is quite possibly the best you’ll find in the Wellington region for a secondary school. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a college on the Kapiti Coast.
Paraparaumu College falls far below expectations, warranting a regrettable zero-star rating from my experience. The overall atmosphere within the college is distressingly lackluster, with a pervasive sense of disorganization and an apparent lack of commitment to fostering a positive learning environment.

Teaching standards at Paraparaumu College are alarmingly subpar, with a noticeable absence of effective communication and support for students. The educators seem ill-prepared to address the diverse learning needs of their students, leading to a frustrating and inadequate educational experience. The lack of responsiveness to these issues reflects a concerning pattern within the college, raising significant doubts about its commitment to providing a quality education.

Furthermore, the college’s infrastructure and facilities are in a dismal state. From outdated classrooms to poorly maintained recreational areas, the overall neglect of the physical environment is palpable. This lack of investment in creating a conducive and safe space for learning suggests a fundamental failure on the part of Paraparaumu College.

In conclusion, my experience with Paraparaumu College has been overwhelmingly negative, with a lack of organization, subpar teaching standards, and a poorly maintained physical environment. I strongly advise anyone seeking a quality education to explore alternative options.
