ERO review
Education Review · 2025-10-10
"Kaimahi work collaboratively using sound planning and assessment practices to guide learning. Yearly, termly, weekly, and daily planning aligns with Ngā Pou e Whā, and incorporates learning about atua Māori, seasonal changes, and topics of interest to mokopuna."
Sound planning and assessment practices; well-aligned with Te Whāriki framework
Not explicitly evaluated in this review.
"Whānau roles and responsibilities in kōhanga reo operations need to be clarified. Lack of clarity means that there is a heavy reliance on specific whānau members to do most of the work."
Family roles unclear; heavy reliance on specific members; needs clarification and broader engagement
Not explicitly evaluated in this review.
"Emergency evacuation drills are inconsistent. A review of the emergency management plan and related policies is urgent and should be completed by the end of term three. Mokopuna safety cannot be guaranteed."
Inconsistent emergency drills; safety concerns; urgent review required for compliance
"Kaimahi appraisal process needs to be completed. Currently, there is no clear follow-through process which impedes kaimahi access to appropriate professional development. Mokopuna access to quality learning is hindered."
Appraisal process incomplete; no professional development follow-through; impacts programme quality
