⭐☆☆☆☆ Papamoa College has been a deeply disappointing experience for our family. While the school promotes progressive values and a commitment to student wellbeing, our lived reality has been the complete opposite. Our daughter has endured ongoing bullying—verbal, emotional, and social—both in and outside the classroom. Despite following every formal process and raising concerns with multiple levels of leadership, including the principal, Board of Trustees, and Ministry of Education, the school has failed to provide consistent or meaningful protection. The pastoral responses feel tokenistic at best. Staff often deny issues unless they are directly witnessed by a teacher, which makes it impossible for covert or insidious bullying to be taken seriously. Students are expected to manage their own safety while adults either look away or shift blame. Restorative meetings are pushed even when a child feels unsafe, and accountability is scarce. To make matters worse, the leadership appears dismissive, defensive, and unwilling to critically reflect on their policies. When bullying persists, the school leans on process over protection, leaving vulnerable students to fend for themselves. If you're considering Papamoa College for your child, I strongly urge you to ask about their actual response record to bullying, not just their written policies. From our experience, it’s not a safe or supportive environment for every child.

When I was a teen, I went to this school and it was perfect. The students are nice, the teachers care about you. so overall, this school is great. A+++
