About Green Bay Primary School

Green Bay Primary School is a co-educational full primary school in Auckland, within the Auckland Region, operating in the state sector, with 630 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 391. The school has been open since 1960.

With 630 students on roll, Green Bay Primary School is a large school — larger than about 87% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 391, 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 72 points is substantial enough to matter when comparing schools.

The roll is genuinely diverse: no single ethnic group dominates, with European at 50.3% and Asian at 31.9%. Diversity of this kind is common in urban New Zealand schools.

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.
