ERO review
Education Review · 2024-06-21
"Kaimahi use various language techniques such as prompts, questions, instructions, and guidance to support mokopuna to speak te reo Māori. Karakia, waiata and pepehā offer opportunities for mokopuna to recognise language patterns. Storytelling is used to encourage mokopuna to associate words with pictures, enhancing comprehension."
Effective pedagogy with intentional language teaching; assessment practices need strengthening.
Not explicitly evaluated in this review.
"The whānau along with the Strengthening Early Learning Opportunities (SELO) provider have combined their skills to support whānau and kaimahi capability. The ERO March 2024 evaluation of Mana Whakahaere practices found the values of whanaungatanga supported and reflected how the whānau managed the operations of the kōhanga."
Strong family involvement in management and operations; collaborative partnership evident.

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