About Te Kura o Waikaremoana

Te Kura o Waikaremoana is a co-educational full primary school in Tuai, within the Hawke's Bay Region, operating in the state sector, with 29 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 511. The school has been open since 2005.

With 29 students on roll, Te Kura o Waikaremoana is a very small school — larger than about 9% of New Zealand schools. Its rural setting typically means smaller class groups and a close-knit community feel.

The school's Equity Index is 511, which is above the national average of 463. A higher Equity Index signals greater socio-economic need in the school's community — schools in this band receive more targeted government funding and support. The gap of 48 points is substantial enough to matter when comparing schools.

100% of students identify as European, so the school has a strongly homogeneous roll. Students of Māori descent make up 0%.

On the isolation index the school scores 2.97 (very high isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
