Amisfield School at a glance

Amisfield School is a co-educational full primary school in Tokoroa, within the Waikato Region, operating in the state sector, with 143 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 508. The school has been open since 1956.

With 143 students on roll, Amisfield School is a medium-sized school — larger than about 36% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 508, which is above the national average of 463. A higher Equity Index signals greater socio-economic need in the school's community — schools in this band receive more targeted government funding and support. The gap of 45 points is substantial enough to matter when comparing schools.

80.8% of students identify as European, so the school has a strongly homogeneous roll. Students of Asian descent make up 11.5%.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.84 (high isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
