Sandstone School ranks 380th, has a two-star rating, and reports the area’s highest chronic absenteeism at 39.8%, along with generally low assessment results. Panorama School has improved substantially, rising to 328th and two stars, but still has comparatively weak mathematics results and 26.5% chronic absenteeism.
