Ōpoho School

Ōpoho School is a co-educational contributing school in Dunedin, within the Otago Region, operating in the state sector, with 123 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 410. The school has been open since 1938.

With 123 students on roll, Ōpoho School is a medium-sized school — larger than about 31% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 410, 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 53 points is substantial enough to matter when comparing schools.

82.6% of students identify as European, so the school has a strongly homogeneous roll. Students of Asian descent make up 8.3%.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.13 (low isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
