Pinehurst is registered with the New Zealand Ministry of Education and is a member of the Association of Proprietary Schools and Colleges of New Zealand (APSCNZ). Located in the Albany growth corridor on Auckland North Shore, Pinehurst serves a diverse international student community from Asia, Europe, and beyond, alongside New Zealand families seeking a rigorous international education in a smaller, family-oriented independent school setting. The school is particularly celebrated for its exceptional IB Diploma results — consistently among the highest in New Zealand — and for its warm, supportive community ethos.
