About Mayfield School (Blenheim)

Mayfield School (Blenheim) is a co-educational contributing school in Blenheim, within the Marlborough Region, operating in the state sector, with 102 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 517. The school has been open since 1955.

With 102 students on roll, Mayfield School (Blenheim) is a medium-sized school — larger than about 26% 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 60.5%, with a meaningful Pasifika community at 26.7% — a mixed but clearly led roll.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.45 (moderate isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
