ERO review
Education Review · 2024-10-29
"Mokopuna experience a stimulating learning programme that that fosters and nurtures mātauranga Māori."
Rich, intentional teaching with strong Te Whāriki implementation and assessment practices evident.
"Mokopuna thrive in an environment that fosters strong connections through whakapapa and a deep sense of belonging."
Strong cultural connections, safe environment, and social-emotional wellbeing consistently demonstrated.
"Some whānau members are new to the kōhanga reo and are not clear about their roles and responsibilities."
Family communication present but management roles and responsibilities need strengthening.
"Whānau are dedicated to fostering te reo Māori and te Mita o te Maunga to ensure continued sustainability for future generations."
Exemplary te reo Māori implementation, tikanga and whakapapa integration throughout.
"Emergency drills are conducted regularly, and registers are maintained to ensure mokopuna health, safety and wellbeing is consistently prioritised."
Compliance evident but policies under review to ensure full alignment with legislation.
"Strategic planning is incomplete. It is time for whānau to develop an action plan to record and monitor progress in relation to their goals and aspirations."
Strategic direction developing but action plans and programme evaluation formalisation needed.
