About BoundFor
We're on a mission to make school selection easier for New Zealand families by providing comprehensive, data-driven insights that help parents make confident decisions about their children's education.
Our Story
BoundFor was born from a simple observation: choosing the right school for your child is one of the most important decisions a parent makes, yet the process is often overwhelming and confusing.
Founded in 2024 by a team of parents and education technology experts, we set out to solve this problem. We realized that while the data exists – from Ministry of Education statistics to ERO reports – it's scattered across dozens of websites and difficult to compare.
Our platform brings all this information together in one place, adding crucial insights like zone eligibility and commute times that are personalized to each family's specific situation.
Today, BoundFor helps thousands of New Zealand families navigate the school selection process with confidence, saving weeks of research and providing peace of mind in their decisions.
