About Brookby School

Brookby School is a co-educational full primary school in Auckland, within the Auckland Region, operating in the state sector, with 118 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 417. The school has been open since 1874.

With 118 students on roll, Brookby School is a medium-sized school — larger than about 30% of New Zealand schools. Its rural setting typically means smaller class groups and a close-knit community feel.

The school's Equity Index is 417, which is well 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 46 points is substantial enough to matter when comparing schools.

The largest group is European at 73.5%, with a meaningful Asian community at 11.4% — a mixed but clearly led roll.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.42 (moderate isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
