About Inglewood High School

Inglewood High School is a co-educational secondary (year 9-15) school in Inglewood, within the Taranaki Region, operating in the state sector, with 530 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 478. The school has been open since 1957.

With 530 students on roll, Inglewood High School is a large school — larger than about 83% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 478, which is close to the national average of 463. That means the roll faces a broadly typical level of socio-economic challenge compared with schools across Aotearoa.

93.2% of students identify as European, so the school has a strongly homogeneous roll. Students of Asian descent make up 3%.

On the isolation index the school scores 1.13 (high isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
