About Drury School

Drury School is a co-educational full primary school in Drury, within the Auckland Region, operating in the state sector, with 346 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 446. The school has been open since 1858.

With 346 students on roll, Drury School is a large school — larger than about 67% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 446, which is 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 roll is genuinely diverse: no single ethnic group dominates, with European at 44.6% and Asian at 33.5%. Diversity of this kind is common in urban New Zealand schools.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.37 (low isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
