Rise UP Academy at a glance

Rise UP Academy is a co-educational full primary school in Auckland, within the Auckland Region, operating in the state sector, with 104 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 485. The school has been open since 2019.

With 104 students on roll, Rise UP Academy is a medium-sized school — larger than about 27% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 485, 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.

83.9% of students identify as Pasifika, so the school has a strongly homogeneous roll. Students of European descent make up 9.3%.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.22 (low isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
