KingsGate School at a glance

KingsGate School is a co-educational composite school in Auckland, within the Auckland Region, operating in the state : integrated sector, with 280 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 434. The school has been open since 2008.

With 280 students on roll, KingsGate School is a medium-sized school — larger than about 59% of New Zealand schools. Its rural setting typically means smaller class groups and a close-knit community feel.

The school's Equity Index is 434, 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 largest group is European at 60.5%, with a meaningful Asian community at 17.9% — a mixed but clearly led roll.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.18 (low isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
