About Glenbrae Primary School

Glenbrae Primary School is a co-educational full primary school in Auckland, within the Auckland Region, operating in the state sector, with 169 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 525. The school has been open since 1956.

With 169 students on roll, Glenbrae Primary School is a medium-sized school — larger than about 42% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 525, which is above the national average of 463. A higher Equity Index signals greater socio-economic need in the school's community — schools in this band receive more targeted government funding and support. The gap of 62 points is substantial enough to matter when comparing schools.

77.4% of students identify as Pasifika, so the school has a strongly homogeneous roll. Students of European descent make up 11.9%.

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.
