About Michael Park School

Michael Park School is a co-educational composite school in Auckland, within the Auckland Region, operating in the state : integrated sector, with 326 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 388. The school has been open since 1978.

With 326 students on roll, Michael Park School is a large school — larger than about 64% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 388, which is well 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 gap of 75 points is substantial enough to matter when comparing schools.

The largest group is European at 61.2%, with a meaningful Asian community at 24.2% — 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.
