Wesley College is a secondary school in Pukekohe, New Zealand. The school provides education from Form 1 to Form 7.

The school was founded by members of the Methodist Church in 1844, making it one of the country's oldest schools. Initially located in Grafton and then the Three Kings area of Auckland, it closed briefly in 1869 before reopening in 1876 in Three Kings again. From the beginning there was an empahasis on educating Maori boys, and also played a prominent role in educating students from countries of the South Pacific. In 1924 the school was moved to its current location of Paerata, near Pukekohe. In 1985 it was one of the first boys schools in New Zealand to admit girls at the senior level.
