Where in the equity index is your school?
The Government has now published equity numbers and bands for all schools, replacing the old decile system. The equity numbers represents how disadvantaged students at a school are, and so the higher the equity number the more disadvantaged the students.
| Equity Number | Band | Group |
| 344 – 402 | Fewest | Fewer |
| 403 – 428 | Few | Fewer |
| 429 – 447 | Below Average | Moderate |
| 448 – 469 | Average | Moderate |
| 470 – 494 | Above Average | Moderate |
| 495 – 521 | Many | More |
| 522 – 569 | Most | More |
There are 2,463 schools with an equity index. The number in each range are.
- Fewest 325
- Few 345
- Below Average 346
- Average 351
- Above Average 361
- Many 331
- Most 404
I’ve merged some spreadsheets together so people can search for a school and see its equity number, its band and group.
