About Target Road School

Target Road School is a co-educational contributing school in North Shore, within the Auckland Region, operating in the state sector, with 466 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 412. The school has been open since 1968.

With 466 students on roll, Target Road School is a large school — larger than about 78% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 412, 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 51 points is substantial enough to matter when comparing schools.

The roll is genuinely diverse: no single ethnic group dominates, with Asian at 49.3% and European at 32.3%. Diversity of this kind is common in urban New Zealand schools.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.08 (very low isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
