About Us

QEC follows the principles of positive behaviour for learning, and restorative practices.

Queen Elizabeth College is a Year 7-13 co-educational secondary school based in Palmerston North. We believe that for a student to succeed, the school and family must work together. Working in partnership means there are more opportunities to ensure that the student is supported.

As a smaller, family school we offer a wide range of opportunities through quality learning experiences and our aim is to give our students individual attention and the opportunities to reach their full potential.

The school provides opportunities for families to track student progress through our Facebook forum page, the Kamar App, newsletters and if needed, personal contact from teachers. Deans and Poutama teachers are available for families and students for advice and support.

Quality
everything we do is at the best of our ability.

Expectations
