Bayswater School at a glance

Bayswater School is a co-educational contributing school in Auckland, within the Auckland Region, operating in the state sector, with 126 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 420. The school has been open since 1953.

With 126 students on roll, Bayswater School is a medium-sized school — larger than about 31% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 420, which is below the national average of 463. A lower Equity Index signals less socio-economic need in the school's community than the national norm. The gap of 43 points is substantial enough to matter when comparing schools.

The largest group is European at 55.8%, with a meaningful Asian community at 19.2% — a mixed but clearly led roll.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.2 (low isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
