An ERO Education Review is an external evaluation of the education provided for school students in all state schools. Reviews are carried out approximately once every three years, but are undertaken more frequently where the performance of a school or centre is poor and there are risks to the education or safety of the students. ERO's reports on individual schools and early childhood service providers are freely available to the public and focus on school improvement and make recommendations to individual boards of trustees on what they are doing well and where they need to improve.
