Ōtari School

Ōtari School is a co-educational full primary school in Wellington, within the Wellington Region, operating in the state sector, with 201 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 393. The school has been open since 1954.

With 201 students on roll, Ōtari School is a medium-sized school — larger than about 48% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 393, 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 70 points is substantial enough to matter when comparing schools.

75.5% of students identify as European, so the school has a strongly homogeneous roll. Students of Pasifika descent make up 11.5%.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.16 (low isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
