"Planning is intentionally designed to reflect te ao Māori and mokopuna connections to ngā hau e whā. Kaimahi work collaboratively with whānau to co-construct planning, tailoring learning outcomes to suit the developmental needs of all mokopuna. Planning occurs over multiple timeframes and integrates both formal and informal learning experiences that are clearly aligned to Te Whāriki a Te Kōhanga Reo, ngā wāhanga o te tau, atua Māori and te taiao."

"Mokopuna are nurtured in their language, identity, and emotional development. They actively participate in karakia, waiata, pao, and mōteatea, demonstrating growing respect and understanding of tikanga Māori. Visual aids, waiata, and te ao Māori activities reflect the atua Māori and the kōhanga pepeha, anchoring mokopuna to tūrangawaewae and local rohe. Kaimahi model fluency in te reo Māori across all interactions, using a range of effective language strategies and facilitated learning."

How this is computedOne or more dimensions missing from ERO data
Where Te Kōhanga Reo ki Aorangi 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.
