Wentworth College and Primary School
Welcome from Our Executive and Deputy Principal
Welcome From - Mr Bruce Tong
Welcome to Wentworth Computer Science College located in Newmarket, Auckland. As the founding Principal of Wentworth College (opened in Gulf Harbour in 2003) I am proud to establish and lead our first satellite campus. Offering an innovative and specialist programme for Years 9 to 13 students, the curriculum focuses on Digital Technologies as well as the more traditional STEM subjects of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics. These subjects are complemented with Economics, Business and English, as well as a specialist course that fosters the ‘soft skills’ that are so important in our students’ future personal lives and careers.
Wentworth Computer Science College (WCSC) offers an individualised education pathway where students with an interest and passion for the traditional Sciences (Chemistry, Physics and Biology) and Computer/Digital Technologies, can focus their study in a knowledge-rich curriculum in subjects they enjoy.
Wentworth’s Gulf Harbour campus has developed a culture and reputation for academic excellence in achievement and this provides an outstanding foundation for our Newmarket campus. We combine the best of the traditional Cambridge International Education (CIE) curriculum framework with the opportunity to study industry-recognised IT qualifications. This creates a progressive and relevant future-focused educational environment. We embrace technological innovation, creativity, critical thinking and problem-solving skills – all key skills and competencies which our students need to acquire to be successful. Small class sizes, combined with our highly skilled and dedicated teachers, help to prepare our students to achieve to the best of their abilities. Our low teacher to student ratio allows us to create a detailed, individualised academic pathway that assists students to maximise their learning in a positive and supportive teacher/student environment.
At Wentworth Computer Science College, we can provide exceptional learning opportunities for your child. We invite and welcome you to tour the campus, meet our teaching faculty and discuss your child’s educational future with us.

I am honoured to serve as the Head of the Newmarket Campus at Wentworth Computer Science College. With a passion for education and a deep commitment to fostering a learning environment that empowers students to excel, I am thrilled to be part of an institution that offers a world-class education focused on Science, Computing, and Mathematics.
At Wentworth Computer Science College all Year 11-13 students learn the Cambridge International Curriculum, an internationally recognized framework that upholds high academic standards. This rigorous curriculum not only prepares our students for success in tertiary education but also delivers the broadest range of subjects in the STEM area.
We believe that a solid foundation in Science, Computing, and Mathematics is essential in navigating the complexities of modern society and becoming future agents of change. These disciplines offer powerful tools for problem-solving and innovation, and we are committed to providing students with both the knowledge and practical experience to excel in these fields. Our unparalleled student-to-teacher ratios also offer all the individual care required for our students to excel.
As the Head of the Newmarket Campus, my focus is on fostering an inclusive and collaborative atmosphere where each student’s potential can flourish. Our dedicated team of teachers, alongside our modern, well-resourced facilities, ensure that students receive a top education. We emphasise not just academic achievement, but also personal growth, preparing students to become leaders in their chosen fields.
