About Riverview School

Riverview School is a co-educational contributing school in Kerikeri, within the Northland Region, operating in the state sector, with 432 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 436. The school has been open since 1988.

With 432 students on roll, Riverview School is a large school — larger than about 76% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 436, which is below the national average of 463. A lower Equity Index signals less socio-economic need in the school's community than the national norm.

88.1% of students identify as European, so the school has a strongly homogeneous roll. Students of Pasifika descent make up 4.5%.

On the isolation index the school scores 1.76 (very high isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
