Our read on Massey High School
Established School With Clear Improvement Focus Underway
Massey High School is a large, diverse West Auckland secondary school with genuine strengths in teaching relationships, community connections, and inclusive culture. The 2023 ERO report is an early-stage profile under a new review approach, meaning a full evaluation is still to come — but the school has identified clear priorities including strengthening its curriculum, lifting literacy and numeracy outcomes, and improving student attendance and engagement. A new principal was appointed in 2022, signalling a period of transition and renewal.
