Te Kura o Huriawa Thorrington

Te Kura o Huriawa Thorrington is a co-educational contributing school in Christchurch, within the Canterbury Region, operating in the state sector, with 456 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 377. The school has been open since 1958.

With 456 students on roll, Te Kura o Huriawa Thorrington is a large school — larger than about 78% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 377, 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 86 points is substantial enough to matter when comparing schools.

83% of students identify as European, so the school has a strongly homogeneous roll. Students of Asian descent make up 12%.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.13 (low isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
