Kiddie Academy Early Learning Centre

"Kaiako are yet to have a shared understanding of how to use the learning outcomes of Te Whāriki, the early childhood curriculum, to document the learning and progress of tamariki."

Assessment and planning processes developing; shared Te Whāriki understanding emerging.

"While kaiako engage in respectful care routines, these routines also restrict opportunities for infants to be empowered and to be able to make choices about their learning experiences. The environment for toddlers hinders opportunities for these tamariki to be independent and to determine their own play."

Younger children's independence and agency limited; needs improvement in empowerment.

"An internal evaluation process has been established. There is some evidence documented about how this process contributes to improvement over time. A process for the professional growth cycles of kaiako is being established."

Internal evaluation emerging; professional learning processes being developed.
