Are short-term school programmes in New Zealand safe?
New Zealand schools place a strong emphasis on students’ safety and wellbeing. Schools enrolling international students must meet New Zealand’s requirements for international student care and provide support with learning, everyday life and safety.
Star Trip prioritises partner schools that meet the relevant requirements and suit each student’s age and programme. We also provide practical guidance before departure and local assistance during the stay.
However, no overseas study or travel experience is entirely without risk. We recommend that parents arrange travel and medical insurance covering the full programme.
