Christchurch South Karamata Intermediate School

Christchurch South Karamata Intermediate School is a co-educational intermediate school in Christchurch, within the Canterbury Region, operating in the state sector, with 492 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 411. The school has been open since 1939.

With 492 students on roll, Christchurch South Karamata Intermediate School is a large school — larger than about 80% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 411, 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 52 points is substantial enough to matter when comparing schools.

75.2% of students identify as European, so the school has a strongly homogeneous roll. Students of Asian descent make up 14.4%.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.1 (low isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
