About Clearview Primary

Clearview Primary is a co-educational full primary school in Rolleston, within the Canterbury Region, operating in the state sector, with 857 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 414. The school has been open since 2008.

With 857 students on roll, Clearview Primary is a very large school — larger than about 93% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 414, 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 49 points is substantial enough to matter when comparing schools.

The largest group is European at 66.1%, with a meaningful Asian community at 25.5% — 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.
