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.

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.

In their words: At Wentworth, our values guide how we learn, how we treat others, and how we contribute to our community.
They shape character, build resilience, and support students to grow into confident, capable young people.

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.

On offer: Junior SwimmingJunior Swimming offers a two-week swimming programme for Year 1 - 2 students helping teach valuable water skills including swimming lessons, lifejacket usage, deep water confidence and boating experiences.
Swimming SportsSwimming Sports are held at a local pool for students in Years 5–13, offering both competitive and participation-based events.

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

Reports ERO holds: 3
Last reviewed: 10 June 2024
Latest report: Wentworth Primary June 2024
Report type: not reported
Board assurance: not reported

What this report states about the school

As stated in ERO’s report of 10 June 2024 — not necessarily the position now. Each line quotes the sentence it came from.

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 155 — 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.

Counted while ERO’s review team was at the school. Education Review Office, report of 23 May 2014

We draw no line between these. Each was counted for its own report, years apart, by a different review team, and a roll moves between reviews for reasons none of these figures record — so the difference between any two of them measures nothing.

All 3 reports ERO holds for this school

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.
