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 (8 April 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 same report — the board assurance report of 8 April 2024 — also sets out actions for compliance: the non-compliance ERO identified during that process. This is that section of the report in full, in ERO’s words.
ERO has identified the following area of non-compliance during the board assurance process:
renewal of police vets for non-teaching staff every three years. [ s 104, Education and Training Act 2020]
The board has since addressed the areas of non-compliance identified.
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 93 — 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 8 April 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 six months of the Education Review Office and Paterangi 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
Paterangi School is a full primary school located 10 minutes northwest of Te Awamutu and close to Pirongia . The school caters for tamariki in Years 1 to 8.
Paterangi School ’s strategic priorities for improving outcomes for ākonga are to:
strengthen cultural intelligence
strengthen social and emotional intelligence
develop a responsive and inclusive curriculum.
You can find a copy of the school’s strategic and annual plan on Paterangi School ’s website.
ERO and the school are working together to evaluate the effectiveness of strategies used to accelerate the progress of those ākonga who are not yet at expected curriculum level.
The rationale for selecting this evaluation is to:
ensure targeted teaching strategies and interventions are impacting positively on outcomes for ākonga who are not yet achieving at the expected curriculum level
grow further capacity in planning and teaching focused on accelerating progress
continue to build capacity in evaluation.
The school expects to see:
accelerated progress for all ākonga who are not yet at the expected curriculum level
lesson planning which responds to the learning needs of ākonga , including social and emotional wellbeing
the use of the most effective strategies and interventions informed by achievement data.
Strengths
The school can draw from the following strengths to support its goal to evaluate the effectiveness of the strategies used to accelerate the progress of those learners who need it.
kaiako who are highly committed to each learner and focused on growing the whole child
a holistic curriculum that reflects community aspirations
an authentic commitment to ensuring all ākonga have a strong sense of identity as a strong foundation for learning and wellbeing.
Where to next?
Moving forward, the school will prioritise:
further analysis of student achievement data to identify those ākonga whose learning requires acceleration
developing responsive and targeted learning interventions with regular review for effectiveness
refine and if needed, further develop and improve systems and processes to support these ākonga .
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.
