About Kaurihohore School

Kaurihohore School is a co-educational contributing school in Kauri, within the Northland Region, operating in the state sector, with 188 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 439. The school has been open since 1877.

With 188 students on roll, Kaurihohore School is a medium-sized school — larger than about 45% of New Zealand schools. Its rural setting typically means smaller class groups and a close-knit community feel.

The school's Equity Index is 439, 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.

90.4% of students identify as European, so the school has a strongly homogeneous roll. Students of Asian descent make up 4.5%.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.81 (high isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
