TKKM o Te Koutu at a glance

TKKM o Te Koutu is a co-educational composite school in Rotorua, within the Bay of Plenty Region, operating in the state sector, with 383 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 485. The school has been open since 1994.

With 383 students on roll, TKKM o Te Koutu is a large school — larger than about 72% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 485, which is close to the national average of 463. That means the roll faces a broadly typical level of socio-economic challenge compared with schools across Aotearoa.

The roll is genuinely diverse: no single ethnic group dominates, with European at 50% and Pasifika at 33.3%. Diversity of this kind is common in urban New Zealand schools.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.32 (low isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
