Welcome to COMET Auckland
To be the world’s most liveable city, Auckland needs to enhance the education achievements of all of our residents. If we improve education across the city, we will provide individuals with wider employment opportunities and increase personal and city-wide prosperity.
COMET Auckland is a Council Controlled Organisation of Auckland Council, and also an independent Charitable Trust. Our role is to support education and skills across Auckland, contributing to the relevant social and economic goals in the Auckland Plan. We do not provide educational services; rather, we function as a champion and connector of action and initiatives, in order to improve the effectiveness and equity of the Auckland education and skills system.
We provide high quality and effective thought leadership, research and project development to encourage cross-sectoral, city wide, collaborative action for education and skills within Auckland.
