Our read on Te Kura ā Iwi o Pawarenga

Serious Concerns Found — Significant Improvement Required

ERO's first review of Te Kura ā Iwi o Pawarenga found that children's wellbeing, safety, learning, and progress are all compromised. While the children themselves show curiosity and enthusiasm, the school's governance, curriculum delivery, safety practices, and employment processes have significant gaps that require urgent attention. ERO has recommended the Ministry of Education consider appointing a Limited Statutory Manager to oversee key school functions.
