Ngahinapouri School

Ngahinapouri School is a co-educational full primary school in Ngahinapouri, within the Waikato Region, operating in the state sector, with 192 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 415. The school has been open since 1877.

With 192 students on roll, Ngahinapouri School is a medium-sized school — larger than about 46% of New Zealand schools. Its rural setting typically means smaller class groups and a close-knit community feel.

The school's Equity Index is 415, 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 48 points is substantial enough to matter when comparing schools.

82.7% of students identify as European, so the school has a strongly homogeneous roll. Students of Asian descent make up 8.1%.

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.
