About Mt Roskill Grammar

Mt Roskill Grammar is a co-educational secondary (year 9-15) school in Auckland, within the Auckland Region, operating in the state sector, with 1,929 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 444. The school has been open since 1953.

With 1,929 students on roll, Mt Roskill Grammar is a one of the largest school — larger than about 99% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 444, which is below the national average of 463. A lower Equity Index signals less socio-economic need in the school's community than the national norm.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.27 (low isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
