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 (7 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 7 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.
What ERO wrote in its latest report
This is ERO’s report of 7 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 8 months of the Education Review Office and Scott Point 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
Scott Point School is a new school located in Hobsonville in West Auckland. It provides education for students from Year 0 to Year 8.
Scott Point School has experienced rapid roll growth. The school opened at the beginning of 2021 with 100 Years 1 to 8 learners and 12 staff. In 2023, 550 learners attend the school, with 50 staff.
The school has been built within a newly established housing area. The school has a diverse range of ethnicities and cultures with many learners, or their families born overseas.
Scott Point School’s strategic priorities for improving outcomes for learners are to:
provide a future focussed curriculum where teaching, learning and assessment meet the needs of today’s learner to become tomorrow’s global citizen
promote holistic positive health and wellbeing for all
continually develop an innovative environment that is vibrant, sustainable and valued
recognise and celebrate the identities, language and culture of the Scott Point Community.
You can find a copy of the school’s strategic and annual plan on Scott Point School’s website.
ERO and the school are working together to evaluate the effectiveness of teaching pedagogy and learning strategies in writing to enhance and improve student learning outcomes.
The rationale for selecting this evaluation is to:
enhance and improve schoolwide student writing progress, achievement and learning outcomes
meet the needs of the high number of English of Other Language Learners (ESOL)
provide schoolwide opportunities for effective professional development in writing, with a focus on sentence and paragraph structures as well as imaginative and creative content.
The school expects to see:
improved teacher efficacy and pedagogy in the teaching of writing
increased student agency and creativity in writing
student writing progress, achievement and learning outcomes enhanced.
Strengths
The school can draw from the following strengths to support their goal to evaluate the effectiveness of teaching pedagogy and learning strategies in writing to enhance and improve student learning outcomes:
the school embraces the diverse community and fosters learners' sense of identity and well-being
consistent schoolwide professional development for teachers, effectively utilizing strategies with access to quality writing resources throughout the school
expert leaders of literacy teachers across the school to support staff in the teaching of writing
targeted ESOL programmes provided by Learning Assistants, guided by the class teachers in each Kāinga to meet the needs of ESOL learners
collaborative leadership is continually adapting implementation of the school’s strategic goals that enacts the school’s vision and values.
Where to next?
Moving forward, the school will prioritise:
consistent induction of teachers new to the school to teach writing effectively
consistent transition into literacy programmes for all new learners
effective pedagogy in writing including developing literacy language to be used across the school
ensure student agency is evident across the school.
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.
