Education Review · 2024-05-15
"Kaimahi have in place effective processes for programme planning. They have embraced a marau developed by ngā taikura o Te Whānau a Apanui, ngā pākeke o Te Whānau ā Hikarukutai and te whānau o Te Kōhanga Reo. The mahere ako incorporates year, term and monthly planning according to Te Maramataka o Te Ahi Kaa. Planning is purposeful and shows links to the hapū and iwi history. Mokopuna benefit from a learning programme that is meaningful, tailored to their needs and embedded in kōrero tuku iho."

"Mokopuna thrive in an environment which reflects learning that is specific to their Apanuitanga. Te Hāhi Ringatū plays an integral role in the learning programme. Kaimahi, whānau and mokopuna join Te Kura o Maraenui for karakia every morning. Kaimahi guide mokopuna to uphold the tikanga and kawa of the iwi in everyday practices. The surrounding area and ākau are an important part of mokopuna learning experiences. They embark on visits to significant landmarks such as local marae, kura and maara kai where they listen to ngā kōrero tuku iho of the area."
Te reo Māori embedded throughout; tikanga practised daily; mana whenua relationships strong.

Composite score
How this is computedOne or more dimensions missing from ERO data
Where Te Kōhanga Reo o Maraenui 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.
