Education Review · 2025-07-18
"Kaimahi have a process in place to plan and assess for mokopuna learning and development. Planning information is informed by the seasons of the year, with relevant alignment to Atua Māori. Learning goals are identified, differentiated, and age-appropriate for the various groups. Excursions are intentionally planned to strengthen mokopuna learning experiences of kaupapa ako. Kaimahi document mokopuna learning and progress through kōnae mokopuna."
Sound planning and assessment processes; te ao Māori alignment; intentional excursion planning evident.

"The health and safety registers do not reflect the guidelines as outlined in the relevant policies. It is important that these are reviewed to ensure health and safety policies are completed, supporting the health and safety of mokopuna. Child Protection policy needs strengthening. Whānau are not clear about its intent and processes."
Health and safety registers inconsistent with policies; child protection policy lacks clarity and requires strengthening
