About Mokoia Intermediate

Mokoia Intermediate is a co-educational intermediate school in Rotorua, within the Bay of Plenty Region, operating in the state sector, with 330 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 473. The school has been open since 1977.

With 330 students on roll, Mokoia Intermediate is a large school — larger than about 65% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 473, 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 largest group is European at 72.3%, with a meaningful Asian community at 10.9% — a mixed but clearly led roll.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.4 (moderate isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
