Education Review · 2025-02-20
"Assessment, planning and programme evaluation require strengthening. There is a lack of understanding amongst kaiako and kaimahi of expectations for planning and assessment remains an area for development. Mokopuna learning and progress is not as well captured or reported as it could be. Additionally, programme evaluation is not consistent."
Assessment and planning lack clarity; evaluation inconsistent and underdeveloped.
Not explicitly evaluated in this review.
"Whānau appreciate their aspirations being prioritised and express satisfaction that their mokopuna are happy, settled and have a love for learning. Open communication and regular hui with whānau offer opportunities for information sharing, policy review and current kaupapa within the puna reo."
Regular communication and hui with whānau; families satisfied and engaged in decision-making.
Not explicitly evaluated in this review.
"Emergency evacuation drills are not practiced regularly. While evacuation drills are planned for, there is limited documentation to show all planned drills are carried out. Kaimahi must ensure emergency drills including fire, earthquake, tsunami and lockdown are carried out and documented as required. Mokopuna safety in an emergency is compromised."
Emergency drills not regularly practiced or documented; child safety in emergencies compromised.
"Supporting kaiako and kaimahi professional growth requires strengthening. Appraising staff is expected but there is no formalised process in place to guide this. Not all staff, including the centre manager, have been appraised. Establishing a clear process for conducting appraisals of all staff is required."
No formalised appraisal process; not all staff including manager have been appraised.

Composite score
How this is computedOne or more dimensions missing from ERO data
Where Te Hononga Puna Reo hasn't been graded on a dimension, the composite uses the national average for that dimension as a placeholder. Each affected axis below is flagged est. When a new ERO review lands, the placeholder is replaced and the score may shift.
The composite is a weighted average of six ERO dimensions, each scored 0–100 (A=90, B=70, C=50, D=25). The "(p47)" style suffix shows where the centre sits within its EQI band (peer percentile, when ≥10 comparable centres in band). See methodology for the formula + limits.
