ERO review
Education Review · 2025-11-26
"Tamariki and mokopuna are nurtured to develop the confidence to learn and succeed. Whānau strongly believe that each tamaiti possesses potential, and that joy should underpin all learning. This belief is evident in kaiako practice, where teaching and learning is centred on tamariki and mokopuna. Individual talents and interests are considered and incorporated into planned activities, and their unique needs and abilities are acknowledged and responded to."
Child-centred, intentional teaching with strengths-based assessment and Te Aho Matua embedded.
"Tamariki and mokopuna are settled and confident. They have positive relationships with their peers, kaiako, and whānau, where they display respect and care for others. Tamariki and mokopuna are confident spiritually and emotionally."
Strong emotional safety, belonging, positive peer/adult relationships, spiritual wellbeing evident.

Where Te Kōhanga Reo o Matawera 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.
