About Stanley Bay School

Stanley Bay School is a co-educational contributing school in Auckland, within the Auckland Region, operating in the state sector, with 178 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 360. The school has been open since 1909.

With 178 students on roll, Stanley Bay School is a medium-sized school — larger than about 44% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 360, 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 103 points is substantial enough to matter when comparing schools.

91.3% of students identify as European, so the school has a strongly homogeneous roll. Students of Asian descent make up 4.9%.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.3 (low isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
