About this data
- Not personal data. These are school-level totals. They do not identify any student or family.
- Source and timing. Figures come from the public school dataset used by FernHub (based on Ministry of Education directory-style fields). They may differ from the latest roll or ethnicity breakdown on Education Counts or from what the school publishes today.
- Why counts can overlap. Students may be included in more than one ethnic group under Ministry reporting rules, so the numbers in each row can add up to more than total school roll. Do not treat rows as mutually exclusive slices of the roll.
- How to use this fairly. Do not use this breakdown to rank schools, to judge teaching quality, or to assume all families in a group are alike. Ethnicity data describes broad patterns only.
- Snapshot. Rolls and demographics change over time; this is a point-in-time view from our data.
- No warranty. FernHub provides this information for general interest only. We do not guarantee it is complete, current, or error-free. For enrolment decisions, use the school and official Ministry resources as the final word.
- Not professional advice. Nothing here is legal, immigration, enrolment, or specialist education advice.
Why we show EQI: Parents often see EQI in the news. It is one number the Ministry uses to work out extra fundingwhere students' families are more likely to face money or housing stress - not a score for how good the school is or how well children learn. Plain-language guide to EQI
