Education Review OfficeWe think Roydvale is a fantastic school. Set in an attractive, well maintained environment. We have wonderful children, effective and caring teachers, brilliant support staff and welcoming and supportive parents. But don't just take our word for it, this is what the Education Review Office had to say after their recent visit: Students learn in a calm and supportive environment. This environment is created through the active fostering of school values and the respectful relationships between teachers and students and among students. Students spoken to by ERO said that they felt safe, were able to focus on their learning and got the support they needed to achieve well. Overall, students, including Māori and Pacific students, achieve very well. Some achieve highly in reading, written language and mathematics. This pattern of student achievement has been sustained over the last three years. School leaders and teachers are well advanced in developing a school curriculum that reflects parents' and their own aspirations for students. These aspirations are well expressed in the school's vision statement. Leaders and teachers make good use of this vision to help focus teaching and learning. The school's curriculum successfully integrates key aspects of the New Zealand Curriculum. Teachers provide students with a broad and balanced range of opportunities to achieve success. The overall quality of teaching and the support students receive is clearly helping to motivate them and encourage their achievement. The school is well led and managed. The principal provides effective leadership, clear direction and a considered approach to school development. He, along with other school leaders, work in ways that promote team work, make good use of staff strengths and maintain a strong focus on improving student achievement. Professional development and support helps to promote ongoing improvements to teaching. The school's new board shows a strong commitment to the school and to enhancing student achievement. Trustees are building on the best of past board practices to help them govern the school effectively. They continue to actively support students and teachers by funding additional staffing and improving teaching resources. Education Review Office
