Ridgeview School

Ridgeview School is a co-educational contributing school in Auckland, within the Auckland Region, operating in the state sector, with 48 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 470. The school has been open since 1969.

With 48 students on roll, Ridgeview School is a very small school — larger than about 14% of New Zealand schools. Its rural setting typically means smaller class groups and a close-knit community feel.

The school's Equity Index is 470, 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.

The roll is genuinely diverse: no single ethnic group dominates, with European at 50% and Pasifika at 23.9%. Diversity of this kind is common in urban New Zealand schools.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.37 (low isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
