About Jean Batten School

Jean Batten School is a co-educational contributing school in Auckland, within the Auckland Region, operating in the state sector, with 245 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 491. The school has been open since 1970.

With 245 students on roll, Jean Batten School is a medium-sized school — larger than about 54% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 491, 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.

80.3% of students identify as Pasifika, so the school has a strongly homogeneous roll. Students of Asian descent make up 16.2%.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.17 (low isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
