TKKM o Rotoiti

TKKM o Rotoiti is a co-educational full primary school in Rotorua, within the Bay of Plenty Region, operating in the state sector, with 42 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 541. The school has been open since 1996.

With 42 students on roll, TKKM o Rotoiti is a very small school — larger than about 13% of New Zealand schools. Its rural setting typically means smaller class groups and a close-knit community feel.

The school's Equity Index is 541, which is well 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 78 points is substantial enough to matter when comparing schools.

The largest group is Pasifika at 55.6%, with a meaningful European community at 33.3% — a mixed but clearly led roll.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.78 (moderate isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
