About TKKM o Te Hiringa

TKKM o Te Hiringa is a co-educational composite school in Tokoroa, within the Waikato Region, operating in the state sector, with 135 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 525. The school has been open since 1999.

With 135 students on roll, TKKM o Te Hiringa is a medium-sized school — larger than about 34% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 525, 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 62 points is substantial enough to matter when comparing schools.

80.8% of students identify as Pasifika, so the school has a strongly homogeneous roll. Students of European descent make up 19.2%.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.87 (high isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
