About Stanley Avenue School

Stanley Avenue School is a co-educational full primary school in Te Aroha, within the Waikato Region, operating in the state sector, with 271 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 477. The school has been open since 1964.

With 271 students on roll, Stanley Avenue School is a medium-sized school — larger than about 57% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 477, 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.

79.3% of students identify as European, so the school has a strongly homogeneous roll. Students of Asian descent make up 10.2%.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.83 (high isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
