About Moerewa School

Moerewa School is a co-educational composite (year 1-10) school in Moerewa, within the Northland Region, operating in the state sector, with 126 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 552. The school has been open since 2005.

With 126 students on roll, Moerewa School is a medium-sized school — larger than about 31% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 552, which is well 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 89 points is substantial enough to matter when comparing schools.

The largest group is Pasifika at 58.3%, with a meaningful European community at 33.3% — a mixed but clearly led roll.

On the isolation index the school scores 1.52 (very high isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
