About Camberley School

Camberley School is a co-educational contributing school in Hastings, within the Hawke's Bay Region, operating in the state sector, with 70 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 556. The school has been open since 1966.

With 70 students on roll, Camberley School is a small school — larger than about 19% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 556, which is well 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 93 points is substantial enough to matter when comparing schools.

The roll is genuinely diverse: no single ethnic group dominates, with Pasifika at 46.9% and European at 43.8%. Diversity of this kind is common in urban New Zealand schools.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.11 (low isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
