Frequently asked questions

What is the best integrated school in New Zealand?

St Joseph's Catholic School (Takapuna) in Takapuna, Auckland ranks first among state integrated schools in New Zealand with a Success Index (NZ) of 92.9 out of 100 (Equity Index (EQI): 346).

How are state integrated schools in New Zealand ranked?

Each school's Success Index (NZ) combines 5 factors: equity index (fewer barriers is higher) (45%), roll size (10%), roll growth (5 years) (15%), school leavers with ncea level 2+ (20%), school leavers with university entrance (10%). Each factor is a percentile against schools of the same type across New Zealand. Schools with fewer than 60 students are excluded from rankings.

Are these 2026 rankings official?

No. They are computed by Success Tutoring from official New Zealand data (Ministry of Education – Schools Directory; Ministry of Education – School leaver attainment (Find a school)). The Equity Index describes the student community, not teaching quality.
