About Redhill School

Redhill School is a co-educational full primary school in Papakura, within the Auckland Region, operating in the state sector, with 211 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 535. The school has been open since 1978.

With 211 students on roll, Redhill School is a medium-sized school — larger than about 49% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 535, which is above the national average of 463. A higher Equity Index signals greater socio-economic need in the school's community — schools in this band receive more targeted government funding and support. The gap of 72 points is substantial enough to matter when comparing schools.

The largest group is Pasifika at 59.6%, with a meaningful Asian community at 21.2% — a mixed but clearly led roll.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.46 (moderate isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
