St Francis of Assisi Catholic School

St Francis of Assisi Catholic School is a co-educational full primary school in Christchurch, within the Canterbury Region, operating in the state : integrated sector, with 476 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 408. The school has been open since 2016.

With 476 students on roll, St Francis of Assisi Catholic School is a large school — larger than about 79% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 408, which is well below the national average of 463. A lower Equity Index signals less socio-economic need in the school's community than the national norm. The gap of 55 points is substantial enough to matter when comparing schools.

The largest group is European at 63.2%, with a meaningful Asian community at 25% — a mixed but clearly led roll.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.13 (low isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
