Can my child go here?
This school has an enrolment scheme, so a place is not open to every address. How enrolment zones work
Loading zone map…
Zone boundaries shown here are approximate. Ministry of Education data warns these boundaries do not have high spatial precision and can place neighbouring addresses on different sides of a line. This is not a confirmation of enrolment eligibility — always confirm directly with the school. Zone geometry also does not reflect enrolment priority rules (siblings, special character categories, ballots) — it shows the mapped boundary only.

What would the day look like?
The practical things this school states on its own website — the hours, the uniform, the term dates, and how children get there. These are the school’s own words, not the Ministry’s record and not ERO’s.
Quoted from this school’s own website, as we read it on 13 August 2026. A web page carries no date of its own, so that is the day we read it — not a statement that any of this is still the case. Each line quotes the words it came from.

What did ERO find?
The Education Review Office reviews every school and publishes what it finds in full. We quote ERO’s report here, section by section, in ERO’s own words and order, and link to it. We do not summarise a report, pick a line out of one, or turn one into a score. How ERO reviews schools

- Board assurance
- The board attested to all areas (25 August 2023)
A board assurance statement is the board’s own account of whether it took all reasonable steps to meet its legal obligations, on the date shown. It is not ERO’s finding. ERO reports separately, in the same report, on any non-compliance it identified during that process.
The board assurance report of 25 August 2023 carries no actions-for-compliance section — the section ERO uses when it names non-compliance it identified. That is what this report contains; it is not ERO saying it found none. Other reports ERO holds for this school may say something different.
The roll ERO recorded, and when
ERO writes a roll into each report it publishes: a count taken for that report, on the day shown, by the review team that was there. The Ministry of Education’s current roll for this school is 420 — the figure at the top of this page, and the one to use for how big the school is now. These are a different measurement by a different body, so they will rarely agree, and a difference between them is not a change in the school.

What ERO wrote in its latest report
This is ERO’s report of 25 August 2023 — “Te Ara Huarau | School Profile Report” — section by section, under ERO’s own headings, in ERO’s own order. Nothing is summarised, shortened or reordered.
Background
This Profile Report was written within 7 months of the Education Review Office and Beach Haven School working in Te Ara Huarau , an improvement evaluation approach used in most English Medium State and State Integrated Schools. For more information about Te Ara Huarau see ERO’s website. www.ero.govt.nz
Context
Beach Haven School is located in Beach Haven on the North Shore of Auckland and caters for Years 1 to 6 ākonga /learners. The school’s vision is to ‘Build Tomorrow Today’, through values of respect, responsibility, integrity and excellence.
Beach Haven School’s strategic priorities for improving outcomes for learners are:
Student Empowerment-Through ownership students make decisions, design their own learning and unlock and follow their passions, leading to ongoing improvement in student achievement.
Growing staff- Teachers and leaders are supported to develop and grow as professionals.
Community Engagement/Partnership- Parents are actively involved in school partnerships with staff, students and community.
You can find a copy of the school’s strategic and annual plan on Beach Haven School’s website.
ERO and the school are working together to evaluate how effectively the school improvement teams’ annual strategies and actions contribute positively to equitable and excellent outcomes for all ākonga , kaimahi /staff and school whānau /families.
The rationale for selecting this evaluation is:
the Curriculum Improvement team’s aim is to further develop a local curriculum that reflects the school’s ‘know the learner’ approach, which builds on empowerment and student agency
the Digital Improvement team is investigating and trialing digital technologies, to further engage ākonga and enhance teaching and learning acceleration practices
the Community Improvement team’s focus is on the continuous improvement of communication systems aimed at increasing whānau partnerships in school life
six years involvement in the Māori Achievement Collective (MAC) has been focused on moving beyond honouring, to giving full effect to Te Tiriti o Waitangi , linked to the Pacific Education Strategy
mathematics and literacy support for kaiako /teachers has been focused on embedding knowledgeable and informed pedagogical practices, to support delivery of the curriculum.
The school expects to see:
the ‘know the learner’ approach empowering ākonga to be independent inquirers; to be agentic in using formative assessment tools to direct their next learning steps
ākonga sharing their learning in meaningful ways which in turn involves whānau in the learning processes and practices
literacy and numeracy capability underpinning all other curriculum areas, so kaiako develop and implement initiatives that strengthen and accelerate ākonga progress and achievement
kaiārahi /leaders supporting the improvement teams to build capacity and positive outcomes for ākonga , kaimahi and community.
Strengths
The school can draw from the following strengths to support its goal to evaluate how effectively the school improvement teams’ annual strategies and actions contribute positively to equitable and excellent outcomes for all ākonga , kaimahi and school whānau :
agency and empowerment in learning is visible and articulated by ākonga
ākonga acceleration stories where kaiārahi share data, ensure systems and processes are consistent and support contact with whānau
kaiako are supported to develop and grow their knowledge and skills to provide a responsive learning environment
kaiārahi and kaiako are all trained as learning coaches
the school instils a love of learning and broadening of horizons that children carry into their future.
Where to next?
Moving forward, the school will prioritise:
a focus on consistency of practices and processes, post the impact of interrupted years of Covid
reviewing for impact on equitable and excellent ākonga outcomes, the mid-year and end of year improvement teams’ strategic workplans
a new attendance programme that continues to focus on having all ākonga at school regularly
explicit teaching and learning processes and practices that access numeracy and literacy support to accelerate levels of achievement for ākonga not meeting curriculum expectations.
ERO’s role will be to support the school in its evaluation for improvement cycle to improve outcomes for all learners. ERO will support the school in reporting their progress to the community. The next public report on ERO’s website will be a Te Ara Huarau | School Evaluation Report and is due within three years.

All 4 reports ERO holds for this school
ERO reviews a school every few years — around four years between reviews is the usual cycle — so an older date here reflects where a school sits in that cycle, not how it is doing.
