Gracefield School

Gracefield School is a co-educational contributing school in Lower Hutt, within the Wellington Region, operating in the state sector, with 208 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 437. The school has been open since 1938.

With 208 students on roll, Gracefield School is a medium-sized school — larger than about 49% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 437, 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 54.3% and Asian at 22.4%. Diversity of this kind is common in urban New Zealand schools.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.11 (low isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
