ERO review
Education Review · 2024-02-20
"Kaimahi work collaboratively to plan the learning programme. Kaimahi use brainstorming ideas to support programme planning which is clear and well set out. This includes goals and objectives that are underpinned by Te Whāriki-a-Te-Kōhanga Reo."
Sound collaborative planning aligned to Te Whāriki, but assessment needs strengthening.

"Kaimahi draw on a range of ways to support mokopuna to build their understanding and use of te reo Māori. Mokopuna participate in language learning activities that are fun, creative and enjoyable. Kaimahi support mokopuna language development by incorporating strategies such as questioning, prompting, modelling, sign language and praise. Tikanga practices, such as whakatau provide mokopuna with opportunities to experience formal language settings."
Strong te reo Māori support and tikanga practices consistently evident and embedded.
"Ongoing review of health and safety policies and procedures ensure adherence to legislative requirements. Kaimahi conduct emergency drills maintaining records on file. Employment documentation includes individual employment contracts, position descriptions and completed kaimahi safety checks."
Health and safety systems in place with regular review and compliance with requirements.
"Kaimahi appraisals require attention. In order to observe the Employment Relations Act 2000, whānau must develop and manage personnel matters in a correct manner. Kaimahi practice would be enhanced through ongoing appraisals. While the strategic plan identifies what the priorities are for the future development of the kōhanga reo, whānau have minimal awareness of the plan."
Strategic plan exists but whānau appraisal systems and staff development need strengthening.

How this is computedOne or more dimensions missing from ERO data
Where Te Kōhanga Reo o Ao Te Rangi 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.
