About Ravensbourne School

Ravensbourne School is a co-educational contributing school in Dunedin, within the Otago Region, operating in the state sector, with 16 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 479. The school has been open since 1858.

With 16 students on roll, Ravensbourne School is a very small school — larger than about 5% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 479, which is close to the national average of 463. That means the roll faces a broadly typical level of socio-economic challenge compared with schools across Aotearoa.

93.3% of students identify as European, so the school has a strongly homogeneous roll. Students of Pasifika descent make up 6.7%.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.14 (low isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
