About Randwick School
Randwick School is a New Zealand primary school operating from New Entrant through to Year 8. The school uses a set of behaviour guidelines called the Randwick Way, which are described as focused on creating a positive, safe, and engaging learning environment.
The school frames its community in terms of whānau and expresses its character through four values drawn from te reo Māori:
- Whanaungatanga — relationships and communication
- Aroha — caring and showing respect
- Kaitiakitanga — protecting people and places
- Akoranga — learning by oneself, from others, and together

Equity Index
The Ministry publishes this figure as a bare number — KuraData shows it against the directory-wide average, so you can see where Randwick 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 →
Student ethnicity
The Ministry publishes this as a raw table — here it's visualised directly against Randwick School's own roll, so the shape of it is clear at a glance.
- European — 33 students (27%)
- Asian — 41 students (33.6%)
- Pacific — 33 students (27%)
- Māori — 46 students (37.7%)
- MELAA — 12 students (9.8%)
