About Massey High School

Massey High School is a co-educational secondary (year 9-15) school in Auckland, within the Auckland Region, operating in the state sector, with 2,110 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 486. The school has been open since 1969.

With 2,110 students on roll, Massey High School is a one of the largest school — larger than about 99% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 486, 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.

The roll is genuinely diverse: no single ethnic group dominates, with European at 39.7% and Pasifika at 29.7%. Diversity of this kind is common in urban New Zealand schools.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.35 (low isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
