Tatuanui School

Tatuanui School is a co-educational contributing school in Tatuanui, within the Waikato Region, operating in the state sector, with 143 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 426. The school has been open since 1919.

With 143 students on roll, Tatuanui School is a medium-sized school — larger than about 36% of New Zealand schools. Its rural setting typically means smaller class groups and a close-knit community feel.

The school's Equity Index is 426, which is below the national average of 463. A lower Equity Index signals less socio-economic need in the school's community than the national norm.

79.7% of students identify as European, so the school has a strongly homogeneous roll. Students of Asian descent make up 17.5%.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.57 (moderate isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
