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 (2 November 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 2 November 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 443 — 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.

We draw no line between these. Each was counted for its own report, years apart, by a different review team, and a roll moves between reviews for reasons none of these figures record — so the difference between any two of them measures nothing.
What ERO wrote in its latest report
This is ERO’s report of 2 November 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 six months of the Education Review Office and Glenfield 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
Glenfield Intermediate is located on Auckland’s North Shore and caters for Years 7 and 8 students. The school is situated in a culturally diverse and changing community. Glenfield Intermediate has a values system based around Respect ( Maruwehi ), Responsibility ( Noho Haepapa ), Resilience ( Aumangea ) and Relationships ( Whanaungatanga ).
Glenfield Intermediate’s strategic priorities for improving outcomes for learners are:
curriculum - a rich, authentic localised curriculum that is inspiring, challenging and empowering
culture - a culture of personal growth and hauora is the way of being at Glenfield Intermediate
community - positive learning focused partnerships with our community.
You can find a copy of the school’s strategic and annual plan on Glenfield Intermediate’s website.
ERO and the school are working together to evaluate how the consistent delivery of culturally sustainable teaching and learning practices can support equitable outcomes and success for all.
The rationale for selecting this evaluation is to:
enhance teacher capability to effectively deliver the refreshed curriculum Te Mātaiaho
align with the school’s strategic goals and progress aspirations of the Kaipātiki Kāhui Ako of which the school is an active member
strengthen culturally responsive teaching practices to support the language, culture, and identity of every student.
The school expects to see a:
refreshed localised curriculum being developed and effectively implemented
strengthened understanding of best practice aligned with Te Mātaiaho to inform deliberate acts of teaching.
Strengths
The school can draw from the following strengths to support its goal to evaluate the consistent delivery of culturally sustainable teaching and learning:
an effective leadership team that collaboratively develops, promotes, and enacts the school vision and values, consistently prioritising and planning for school improvement
a school culture that supports hauora is well established and characterised by respect, responsibility, resilience and relationships
a staff who are committed to inspiring, challenging and empowering ākonga to make progress and achieve personal success
learners express a strong sense of belonging and connection to the school
effective community connections and transitions which create positive learning focused partnerships.
Where to next?
Moving forward, the school will prioritise:
professional development and collaborative discussion to further develop a shared understanding of culturally sustainable practice
developing a shared understanding of the refreshed curriculum Te Mātaiaho that support teaching and learning and promote equitable outcomes.
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.

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.
