Waikowhai Primary School

Waikowhai Primary School is a co-educational contributing school in Auckland, within the Auckland Region, operating in the state sector, with 202 students on roll, and an Equity Index of 433. The school has been open since 1956.

With 202 students on roll, Waikowhai Primary School is a medium-sized school — larger than about 48% of New Zealand schools.

The school's Equity Index is 433, which is 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 roll is genuinely diverse: no single ethnic group dominates, with Asian at 35.6% and Pasifika at 28.9%. Diversity of this kind is common in urban New Zealand schools.

On the isolation index the school scores 0.29 (low isolation) — this measures how far students travel and how accessible the school is, not how good it is.
