Levin Intermediate at a glance

Levin Intermediate is a co-educational intermediate school in Levin, within the Manawatū-Whanganui Region, operating in the state sector, with 279 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 517. The school has been open since 1971.

With 279 students on roll, Levin Intermediate is a medium-sized school — larger than about 58% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 517, which is above the national average of 463. A higher Equity Index signals greater socio-economic need in the school's community — schools in this band receive more targeted government funding and support. The gap of 54 points is substantial enough to matter when comparing schools.

The largest group is European at 67.8%, with a meaningful Pasifika community at 21.5% — a mixed but clearly led roll.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.63 (moderate isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
