About Hobsonville Point Primary School
Hobsonville Point Secondary School (HPSS) is a state secondary school catering to students in Years 9 to 13, located in the Hobsonville Point area. The school organises its curriculum into a junior programme (Years 9–10) and a senior programme (Years 11–13).
A distinctive structural feature of the school is its Whānau Class system, in which each student is assigned a Whānau Coach responsible for pastoral care, academic mentoring, and parental contact. Groups of Whānau Classes are organised into Communities, each led by a Community Lead Teacher.
The school maintains partnerships with local employers, industry associations, and further education providers, through which students may access work-based learning, internships, industry visits, and collaborative projects. The school reports 90 student internships and NCEA pass rates of 85.2% at Level 2 and 83.3% at Level 3.
Enrichment classes are available across a range of disciplines, including STEM, Junior Psychology, Coding and Game Design, the Athlete's Development Programme, Duke of Edinburgh, Enrichment Maths, Set Production, Coaching, and Environmental Science. Students can also participate in more than 20 sports and extra-curricular activities such as kapa haka, Model UN, EPRO8, Aquabots, and Maths Club.

Outside the scheme, a school can still ask families for donations, but cannot compel or enforce payment.
Check directly with the school for current charges, contributions or other costs. Learn more on the donations scheme or fees and charges at school, both on education.govt.nz.
Equity Index
The Ministry publishes this figure as a bare number — KuraData shows it against the directory-wide average, so you can see where Hobsonville Point Primary School actually sits, not just the number on its own.
The Equity Index estimates the socio-economic barriers students face, on average, and is used to inform government funding and support. It is not a measure of school quality or academic performance.
Higher values indicate a higher level of estimated socio-economic barriers; lower values indicate fewer. Learn how the Equity Index is calculated →
