About Dunedin North Intermediate

Dunedin North Intermediate is a co-educational intermediate school in Dunedin, within the Otago Region, operating in the state sector, with 269 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 435. The school has been open since 1934.

With 269 students on roll, Dunedin North Intermediate is a medium-sized school — larger than about 57% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 435, 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.

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.
