Section 3: The elements of effective review
Ko te rito te pū kāmehameha, awheawhe te pā ki tōna tauranga.
Nurturing the ritorito - the developing leaves at the heart - ensures the survival of the flax bush as a whole.
The pā, or the outer leaves, and other elements, such as soil, wind, and sun, together provide the ritorito with a sturdy foundation. Only the healthiest leaves are selected from the harakeke to weave a quality whāriki.
Like the impact of healthy harakeke on the quality of a weaving, there are key elements that contribute to the quality of review and its potential to transform practice. These elements offer a source of strength and insight, thereby increasing the effectiveness of review processes and the quality of our curriculum whāriki.
