Gloriavale Christian School registration cancelled following special ERO review

Gloriavale Christian School's registration as a private school is set to be cancelled following a special review by the Education Review Office (ERO). The secretary for education, Ellen MacGregor-Reid, stated that the school was not a physically and emotionally safe environment for students, leading to the decision. Despite this, the school remains open due to a High Court challenge initiated by its board, with a judicial review scheduled for October. The Ministry of Education has applied to the court to lift interim orders preventing the school's closure. The school currently has approximately 80 students, and the ministry aims to find a suitable time for closure while prioritizing student well-being. Concerns raised include restrictions on students advancing past Year 11, inadequate support for vulnerable students, and unsafe conditions in overcrowded hostels used for homeschooling.
