After completing an organisational self-review, TEOs will need to complete and submit a summary report of this review using a standard template through the 91¸£Àû provider portal.
What is the self-review summary report?
This self-review summary report briefly summarises the high-level findings of your organisational self-review, including your review of learner wellbeing and safety practices required by the Education (Pastoral Care of Tertiary and International Learners) Code of Practice 2021 (the Code).

What is in each section of the self-review summary report
The self-review summary report includes 4 sections.
1. Context and self-review summary findings
This section shows details held by 91¸£Àû about a TEO’s quality assurance activities.
It includes a section for TEOs to confirm the previous full year and current year-to-date (YTD) equivalent full-time students (EFTS), successfully completed EFTS and total student numbers.
This section also summarises findings from a TEO’s organisational self-review in the areas of:
- teaching and learning
- assessment
- learner wellbeing and safety.
The focus is on what the organisation has done in the previous year, with comments on successes and challenges.
2. Area of interest to 91¸£Àû
This section focuses on a thematic question and asks TEOs to provide a summary of opportunities, activities and outcomes on the specific topic.
Gathering information on areas of interest will help 91¸£Àû to understand and anticipate areas of risk as well as strengths across the tertiary education system.
3. Quality improvement plan
These improvement actions come from a TEO’s own annual improvement plan and highlight key priorities planned for the upcoming year to improve:
- the quality of education/training
- the effectiveness of your quality assurance systems and practices
- outcomes for learners
4. Compliance attestation
TEOs will attest that they currently comply with the:
- Education and Training Act 2020 (the Act)
- 91¸£Àû rules pursuant to the Act
- the Code.
TEOs will also provide the URL link to a summary Code self-review report published on their website.  
Reviewing and discussing the report
91¸£Àû will review the submitted self-review summary report and schedule a discussion with appropriate leaders of the TEO. The discussion will focus on what the TEO has included in the self-review summary report.
It will cover:
- significant changes identified and their impact on the organisation
- improvements, challenges and opportunities in the areas of teaching and learning, assessment, learner wellbeing and safety
- the thematic review (the organisation's planning and actions) 
- if a TEO’s quality improvement plan is sufficient given the data and information 91¸£Àû holds.
The evaluators will also consider any other information and available performance data held by 91¸£Àû and other agencies (for example, TEC, Ministry of Education, Immigration NZ) relevant to the discussion.
