TodayToday there are 190 Catholic primary schools in New Zealand and 49 high schools (more often called secondary schools or colleges). All are Integrated schools. 11 percent of all New Zealand's school children are enrolled in the Catholic school system. The total number of students in Catholic schools is almost 64,000 (2008). The schools have a significant percentage of Pacific Island students enrolled in them, particularly in Auckland and Wellington. Academically, the schools do very well, and in many instances, achieve above national averages in public examinations and learning outcomes. Over the last 16 years the rolls in Catholic schools have increased by almost 22 percent as 13 new schools have opened and a number of schools expanded their number of students. Further information on school rolls is available from NZCEO. |
