Education Review · 2024-08-26
"Planning is not always responsive to identified mokopuna strengths, interests or needs. Also, planning is not consistently guiding the daily implementation of the programme."
Planning exists but inconsistently guides daily implementation and responsive teaching.
"Mokopuna are not always well supervised, at times they walk around while eating, climb over fixtures and go into rooms where they cannot freely exit. They do not always have access to resources or experiences that sufficiently stimulate their interest or sustained engagement in learning."
Supervision gaps and insufficient learning environment stimulation noted.
Not explicitly evaluated in this review.

"Planning for mokopuna health, safety and wellbeing requires strengthening. Mokopuna are not always well supervised, at times they walk around while eating, climb over fixtures and go into rooms where they cannot freely exit."
Supervision and environmental safety management require strengthening.
"Kaimahi would benefit from more professional learning and training. The whānau should give consideration to how they can support kaimahi growth and development to better honour the legacy of their kuia and achieve their aspirations for their mokopuna. Also, employment agreements and position descriptions require updating to reflect expectations."
Professional learning and role clarity for staff need development and enhancement.
