About Newmarket School

Newmarket School is a co-educational contributing school in Auckland, within the Auckland Region, operating in the state sector, with 254 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 372. The school has been open since 1877.

With 254 students on roll, Newmarket School is a medium-sized school — larger than about 55% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 372, 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 91 points is substantial enough to matter when comparing schools.

The largest group is Asian at 71.3%, with a meaningful European community at 17% — a mixed but clearly led roll.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.09 (very low isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
