Hagley Community College, is a non-integrated state secondary school in inner-city Christchurch, New Zealand. Prior to 1965 the school was Christchurch West High School, which was founded in 1858. It is described as a mature learning environment for over 1,600 adolescent and adult students that is more akin to a polytechnic or a university ^[1] . Unlike most New Zealand High Schools there is no uniform requirement and students may address their teachers on a first name basis. Over 42% of Year 13 students go on to graduate from a New Zealand University ^[2].
