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 does the school say about itself?
Quoted, not summarised. Every school describes itself well, so this is here to be read as the school’s own case rather than as a finding — and a school that states nothing simply has no row.

What is on offer beyond the classroom?
The sports, arts, clubs and groups this school names on its own website. Not a complete list of what any school offers, and not a count — a school that names more here has written more down, which is not the same as doing more.

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 (14 September 2022)
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 14 September 2022 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 924 — 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 14 September 2022 — “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 12 months of the Education Review Office and Glen Eden Intermediate 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
Glen Eden Intermediate School provides education for students in Years 7 and 8. The school’s values of respect, responsibility, integrity, and excellence are well embedded in school life.
Glen Eden Intermediate’s strategic priorities for improving outcomes for learners are:
supporting Glen Eden Intermediate School’s curriculum of coherent learning pathways and reflecting the priorities, preferences and needs of our community
realising the aspirations of all our learners with a focus on consultation with Māori whānau, hapu, iwi and parents, family, and community
working reciprocally with Māori and our diverse Pasifika communities
using pedagogical approaches that ensure the success of Māori and Pasifika learners.
You can find a copy of the school’s strategic and annual plan on Glen Eden Intermediate’s website.
ERO and the school are working together to evaluate equitable outcomes for learners.
The rationale for selecting this evaluation is to:
strategically plan for equity for Māori and Pasifika learners
uphold our obligation to give full and systematic effect to Te Tiriti o Waitangi
continually strengthen relationships and consult with our school community
improve learning outcomes for all our learners in response to the impact of Covid.
The school expects to see:
improved outcomes that are consistently equitable and excellent for all learners
school practices and actions that are inclusive and cater well for all learners, including a specific focus on Māori and Pasifika
robust, rigorous data collection and analysis along with student voice to inform practice
Glen Eden Intermediate School staff driving culturally sustaining practice.
Strengths
The school can draw from the following strengths to support the school in its goals through:
robust Māori and Pasifika achievement plans that are reviewed and updated annually
participation in Kōtuitui Kāhui Ako led professional learning opportunities such as Te Wao nui a Tāne
a focus on community partnerships and culturally responsive and sustaining practice
an explicit focus on all learners experiencing deep learning in relation to te ao Māori, te reo Māori and mātauranga Māori through programmes such as Kaupapa on the Couch.
Where to next?
Moving forward, the school will prioritise:
consistently equitable and excellent learner progress and achievement for all learners
embedding systematic, collaborative inquiry and internal evaluation processes
giving full and systematic effect to Te Tiriti o Waitangi
creating space for whānau agency and building confidence and capability through community consultation and partnerships.
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.
