Score breakdown

6 axes, each scored 0–100 on a national absolute scale. As at 2025.

How this is computed

ERO review not in our dataset

We don't yet have a parsed ERO composite for Te Wharekura o Manurewa, so the ERO axis below uses the national-average ERO score (75/100) as a placeholder. The composite shown above incorporates that estimate. When we ingest a real ERO review for this school, the score will refresh and may move materially in either direction.

If you've spotted a recent ERO report we've missed, let us know — every flagged report gets re-ingested on the next refresh.

ERO review
5%
75/100 — national average (no ERO review in our dataset) · near band median (n=544) · why?
Synthetic placeholder. We don't yet have an ERO composite for this school in our dataset, so this axis uses the national-average ERO score (75/100) as a placeholder. The composite incorporates this estimate. When a real review is ingested it will replace the placeholder and the score may move materially. Peer comparison: near band median (n=544).
