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 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 (18 May 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 18 May 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 340 — 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 18 May 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 30 months of the Education Review Office and Kingsford 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
Kingsford School is in Māngere East and serves young people in Years 0 to 6. A new principal started in Term 3 2022 and is working with the school board to establish community focused strategic priorities.
Ko Te Pane o Mataoho te maunga
Ko Ōruarangi me te Puhinui ngā awa
Ko Manukanuka o Hoturoa te moana
Ko Taramainuku me Kaiwhare ngā kaitiaki
Ko Tainui te waka
Ko Kingsford te kura.
Kingsford School’s strategic priorities for improving outcomes for learners are:
Culture
Learning
Partnerships.
You can find a copy of the school’s strategic and annual plan on Kingsford School’s website.
ERO and the school are working together to evaluate the extent to which a sense of belonging, connection and confidence is experienced to improve valued outcomes for young people.
The rationale for selecting this evaluation is to:
ensure young people experience a sense of belonging, connection and confidence at school to support improved outcomes
deliberately align school practices with feedback from whānau and their aspirations for tamariki
further increase the capability and capacity of staff to ensure culturally responsive practices are understood and applied school wide.
The school expects to see young people:
consistently demonstrating a strong sense of belonging and connection to the school
consistently experiencing a learning environment where their language, culture and identity inform a localised and responsive curriculum
demonstrating agency in their learning and contributing to the continuous improvement of the school
acknowledged and celebrated in recognition of their learning, progress and achievement
supported by their whānau in successful learning partnerships.
Strengths
The school can draw from the following strengths to support their goal to evaluate young people’s s ense of belonging, connection and confidence at Kingsford School:
a school wide commitment to Te Tiriti o Waitangi
student voice and working in partnership with whānau are valued by school leaders and the board
school leaders are working collaboratively to build and maintain relationships with whānau and tangata whenua .
Where to next?
Moving forward, the school will prioritise:
continuing professional learning for staff related to this kaupapa
ensuring there is a shared understanding of key concepts related to this evaluation
collecting student, whānau and staff voice and experience to inform this evaluation.
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.
