"Teachers acknowledge and reflect the unique place of Māori as tangata whenua. Children have an opportunity to develop an understanding of the cultural heritages of both parties to Te Tiriti o Waitangi."
Sound Te Tiriti implementation; bicultural learning opportunities evident.
"Since the onsite visit, the service has provided ERO with evidence that shows it has addressed non-compliances and is now taking reasonable steps to meet regulatory standards."
Regulatory standards met; previous non-compliances addressed post-visit.
"Increasing the visibility of how teachers are evaluating the effectiveness of their programme in relation to the learning outcomes from Te Whāriki, the early childhood curriculum."
Need to improve programme evaluation visibility and Te Whāriki implementation documentation.
