Clyde Quay School at a glance

Clyde Quay School is a co-educational full primary school in Wellington, within the Wellington Region, operating in the state sector, with 225 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 369. The school has been open since 1889.

With 225 students on roll, Clyde Quay School is a medium-sized school — larger than about 51% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 369, 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 94 points is substantial enough to matter when comparing schools.

The roll is genuinely diverse: no single ethnic group dominates, with European at 46.1% and Asian at 41.9%. Diversity of this kind is common in urban New Zealand schools.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.06 (very low isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
