About Royal Road School

Royal Road School is a co-educational full primary school in Auckland, within the Auckland Region, operating in the state sector, with 349 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 491. The school has been open since 1968.

With 349 students on roll, Royal Road School is a large school — larger than about 67% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 491, 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 Pasifika at 37.7% and Asian at 34.1%. 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.
