What ERO found

The Education Review Office’s latest report on the school is a Te Ara Huarau School Profile Report from April 2024. This kind of report sets out what ERO and the school will evaluate together, here whether professional learning in adaptive, responsive teaching leads to better progress and achievement for every student.

ERO pointed to a shared sense of purpose and identity that links students, staff and families through trusting relationships, a caring and inclusive place to learn, and a culture of ongoing improvement that builds teachers’ skills and sets suitably high expectations for students.

Next, the school plans to review how it gathers and uses assessment information, continue professional learning in responsive and adaptive teaching, keep reviewing its local curriculum through a Catholic lens, and keep inquiring into student progress, with staff sharing what works.
