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.

Uniform
  • RequiredWe expect our students to wear their full uniform with pride.

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 (24 July 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 24 July 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 295 — 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.

This is one count taken for one report. It says what the roll was on that day, and nothing about how the roll has moved.

What ERO wrote in its latest report

This is ERO’s report of 24 July 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 6 months of the Education Review Office and Glenfield Primary 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

Glenfield Primary School is located on the North Shore, Auckland. The school provides education for learners from years 1 – 6. The school’s vision is ‘A community growing successful learners ’.

Glenfield Primary School’s strategic priorities for improving outcomes for learners are:

student wellbeing will be reflected by their engagement in learning and their social and emotional behaviour

there will be a sound knowledge of cultural practices evident, and all classrooms will be inclusive of all learners/ ākonga

teaching practice will demonstrate a high awareness of diverse learners’ needs and interests

cultural knowledge and prior experiences will be used to make learning more relevant and effective for diverse learners/ ākonga .

You can find a copy of the school’s strategic and annual plan on Glenfield Primary School’s website.

ERO and the school are working together to evaluate how well culturally responsive practices, high expectations and positive relationships are fundamental to teaching and learning and improving outcomes for all learners/ ākonga .

The rationale for selecting this evaluation is to:

accelerate academic progress and achievement, ensuring learners/ ākonga have greater ownership of their learning, and next steps

enhance culturally responsive teaching practice to ensure all learners/ ākonga have a sense of belonging and achieve personal success.

The school expects to see stronger learning partnerships with wh ānau and an environment where students have a sense of belonging and a greater understanding of themselves and others. There will be a culture of high expectations, where students feel valued, have ownership over their learning and know what they need to do to improve.

Strengths

The school can draw from the following strengths to support its goal to evaluate how well culturally responsive practices, high expectations and positive relationships will improve outcomes for all learners/ ākonga.

differentiated professional learning and development to enhance teaching and learning practices.

collaborative, consistent and culturally responsive learning structures that ensure quality for all learners/ ākonga .

professional relationships and effective teaching are focused on the learning and wellbeing of all learners/ ākonga.

Where to next?

Moving forward, the school will prioritise:

utilising the aspirations of parents and whānau in decision making, planning and teacher practice

the consistent delivery of effective culturally responsive teaching practice

ensuring students’ prior knowledge, backgrounds, and world views are used to inform teaching and learning.

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.
