Manurewa Intermediate at a glance

Manurewa Intermediate is a co-educational intermediate school in Auckland, within the Auckland Region, operating in the state sector, with 937 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 518. The school has been open since 1962.

With 937 students on roll, Manurewa Intermediate is a very large school — larger than about 94% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 518, 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 55 points is substantial enough to matter when comparing schools.

The largest group is Pasifika at 65.5%, with a meaningful Asian community at 17.1% — a mixed but clearly led roll.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.2 (low isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
