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 (25 January 2024)
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 January 2024 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 328 — 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 January 2024 — “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 9 months of the Education Review Office and Mountain View 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
Mountain View School | Te Kura Tirohanga Maunga is in Māngere Bridge and nestled at the base of Te Pane o Mataaoho (Māngere Mountain). The school provides education for tamariki in Years 0 to 6 who come from diverse backgrounds and a range of local suburbs. Most tamariki who attend the school identify as Māori and/or Pacific.
The leadership team are working with the school community to manage the growing school roll and evolving demographic.
Mountain View School ’s strategic priorities for improving outcomes for learners are:
Marautanga me Whakaako | Curriculum and Practice – Relevant, real, responsive curriculum taught by effective, research driven teachers.
Whanaungatanga | Community – Rich relationships based on partnership, participation and protection.
Ahurea Tuakiri | Diversity, Identity and Culture – Recognising the value in all and ensuring success through any means possible.
Taaria te Waa me Kaitiakitanga | Continuity and Potential – Systems and processes that ensure long term sustainable success.
Hauora | Wellbeing – Promoting physical, spiritual, mental and emotional health.
You can find a copy of the school’s strategic and annual plan on Mountain View School ’s website.
ERO and the school are working together to evaluate how well a holistic approach to student wellbeing and learning accelerates achievement outcomes for tamariki .
The rationale for selecting this evaluation is to ensure the continued focus on raising and accelerating achievement for all tamariki . This is a key aspect of a school-wide approach to improving valued outcomes for tamariki and supporting them to thrive with confidence.
Through the school-wide holistic approach to meeting the needs of tamariki , the school expects to see:
tamariki experiencing a learning environment which continually improves and responds to their needs, aspirations, cultures, languages and identities
accelerated progress in the foundation areas of literacy and numeracy
teachers consistently using effective strategies and practices to promote equitable and excellent outcomes for all tamariki
further opportunities to enhance tamariki agency and access to a broad and meaningful curriculum
school-wide leadership of teaching and learning that is well established and focused on continuous improvement.
Strengths
The school can draw from the following strengths to support its goal to evaluate how well they accelerate outcomes for tamariki :
the school’s values of honesty, humility, determination, respect, kindness and courage underpin school systems and processes
teaching is characterised by respect, inclusion, responsiveness, empathy and safety to support learning and accelerated progress
school leaders’ model and ensure a continuously improving, culturally responsive approach based on relational trust across the school community
community collaboration is well established and developing into learning centred relationships and partnerships
the school has the collective capacity to do and use evaluation for improvement and innovation with a clear focus on equitable and excellent outcomes for tamariki .
Where to next?
Moving forward, the school will continue to prioritise:
the development of a shared understanding of achievement at Mountain View School | Te Kura Tirohanga Maunga across all stakeholders
engaging in professional learning related to accelerating progress and achievement for tamariki
building a school culture that aligns with the values and aspirations of the community.
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.
