Atea College, formerly Carey College, is a private Christian school in Panmure, Auckland, New Zealand.^[1]

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^[2] instead of the National Certificate of Educational Achievement ("NCEA"), which it regards as unsatisfactory.^[3]

This school's curriculum implements a Bible-based worldview.^[4]

The school was renamed Atea College in 2019 or 2020.^[5]
