  • Māori Medium - Ngā Whanaketanga Rūmaki Māori focus on korerō(oral language), pānui(reading), tuhituhi(writing), and pāngarau(mathematics) in years 1 - 8
  • English Medium - Individual student progress focuses on reading, writing and mathematics in years 1 - 8.

Both pathways follow the New Zealand Curriculum as well as the Māori Medium Curriculum, Te Marautanga o Aotearoa which provides the guidelines for eight curriculum areas at all levels of schooling.
