Te Horo School (Otaki)

Te Horo School (Otaki) is a co-educational full primary school in Ōtaki, within the Wellington Region, operating in the state sector, with 205 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 425. The school has been open since 1893.

With 205 students on roll, Te Horo School (Otaki) is a medium-sized school — larger than about 48% of New Zealand schools. Its rural setting typically means smaller class groups and a close-knit community feel.

The school's Equity Index is 425, 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.

88.4% of students identify as European, so the school has a strongly homogeneous roll. Students of Pasifika descent make up 4.7%.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.43 (moderate isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
