The school's motto is "Learn to think for yourself". Atea College is a registered Cambridge International Centre, preparing students for Cambridge International Examinations IGCSE and A Level qualifications[3] instead of the National Certificate of Educational Achievement ("NCEA"), which it regards as unsatisfactory.[4]
This school's curriculum implements a Bible-based worldview.[5]
The school was renamed Atea College in 2019 or 2020.[6]
