Broadgreen Intermediate at a glance

Broadgreen Intermediate is a co-educational intermediate school in Nelson, within the Nelson Region, operating in the state sector, with 490 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 471. The school has been open since 1971.

With 490 students on roll, Broadgreen Intermediate is a large school — larger than about 80% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 471, which is close to the national average of 463. That means the roll faces a broadly typical level of socio-economic challenge compared with schools across Aotearoa.

78.3% of students identify as European, so the school has a strongly homogeneous roll. Students of Asian descent make up 11.9%.

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.
