ERO review

Akarangi · 2022-10-03

Daycare Near Me's analysis of the ERO report — six dimensions with verbatim quotes (methodology).
Curriculum & learning
C
"Leaders have identified the need to further develop teachers' role as the facilitators of children's play. A greater planning focus on children's individual interests and learning dispositions could result in more child-led play."

Assessment and planning practices need further development toward child-led focus.

Children's wellbeing
—

Not explicitly evaluated in this review.

Whānau partnership
B
"Parent partnership is seen as integral to children's wellbeing and development. Teachers have begun to use on-line portfolios to share children's learning with whānau. Most parents use the electronic portfolios to interact with teachers about their child's learning."

Effective parent partnerships; digital communication established with most families engaged.

Bicultural practice
—

Health & safety

Not explicitly evaluated in this review.

Leadership & governance
↓C
"Leaders could now benefit from relevant professional learning focused on change management processes to effectively lead the centre through this time of growth."

Strategic direction established but professional learning needed for change management.
