Principal’s Report
2014 has been another very strong year for Tauranga Girls’ College, as can be seen in the analysis of variance
pages that follow. Our NCEA outcomes were strong in Level 2 and 3 and we achieved the highest number of
scholarships ever, across a wide range of subjects. Supporting this academic success and reported on the
school website and via the newsletters are a huge range of successes at regional, national and world level
and just a few of these are highlighted in the remainder of this page.
In 2014 our school population contained approximately 40 International fee paying students, increasingly
shorter stay students who contributed valuable funding to the college, as well as being welcome members of
the school community.
Outstanding student successes in 2014 were the national awards gained by our Young Enterprise Girls,
including CEO of the Year, the four world champions and eighteen New Zealand representatives from our
school across sport, arts and music. We also had a junior student win the Australasian Asia Wise competition,
resulting in her job shadowing the British Ambassador in Wellington for a day.
A Future Problem solving team again travelled to America, one of our senior students won the regional
Young innovators competition and one student had artwork selected for presentation to the Prime Minister,
John Key. Students completed university papers in Economics, Mandarin, Mathematics, Computing, Te Reo
and German and one of our Mandarin students again won the regional Mandarin competitions in Rotorua.
We had two students selected via the Sheilah Winn Shakespeare festival to represent New Zealand and
travel to the Globe Theatre in Britain and staff, including the Principal, also travelled for professional
development overseas on sponsored study trips. The Principal was on sabbatical during term two of 2014.
Staffing remained stable, with very few appointments or resignations for 2014. The school professional
learning cycle continued to embed and both Kia Eke Panuku (Building on Success) and Positive Behaviour for
Learning (PB4L) professional development initiatives continued to be implemented.
Student leadership was strong, with a wide variety of activities provided by the four student councils and
enjoyed by students at all year levels. Fundraising for charities was also well supported and community
outreach to hospice, local schools and other groups very much appreciated by our local community.
Information technology resources were boosted by the purchasing of further sets of COTs (computers on
trolleys) for every block in the school, providing flexible access for all students to technology across the
curriculum. Linked to this was the full implementation of a wireless environment across the campus and
completion during the year of a Ministry of Education subsidised SNUP upgrade.
A continuing challenge in 2014 was the continuation of the remediation of our leaky buildings, with the
Administration Block upgrade followed by work on the Music and then Drama suites. Balancing “business as
usual” with the building remediation work to be done proceeded very smoothly and in 2014 we also
accomplished the completion of the Board of Trustees project to upgrade the school library as a modern
learning environment.

Analysis of Variance against School Targets
Aim 1: To develop forward thinkers with a life-long commitment to learning
through high standards of student achievement and personal development.
Target 1:
Year 11 Māori girls will achieve Level 1 NCEA above the level of National
Māori girls
While the target for 2014 NCEA attainment focussed on Māori student achievement in NCEA level 1
the following graphs show trends for student achievement in the senior school as a context for that target.
All data is taken directly from NZQA sources. The percentage of achievement figures are for each year level
based on the number of students attempting the qualification in that year.
These figures do not account for students who achieve a qualification over a period of more than one year
e.g. Level 1 achieved in Year 12.
These graphs show our trend data over the past few years, including the gap between Māori student
achievement and that of the whole school along with a comparison between the two sets of data: National
girls’ achievement and that of other similar schools (decile 6 schools girls’ achievement).
We would expect some fluctuation in our student achievement figures due to the fact that we have a smaller
sample than the National girls’ cohort, but that we maintain our position relative to national outcomes over
time.

Analysis of Variance
The Level 1 results for our Year 11 students show that maintenance of the improved success remains
challenging. Year 11 Māori girls’ achievement in NCEA Level 1 remains slightly ahead of National Māori Girls’
and mirrors the difference between the National girls’ and Māori girls’ achievement data. The success rate
for Māori girls did not exceed 65%, which was our target but was within reach of this target when allowing
for small sample size. The results for level 2 and level 3 for Māori students were much stronger and follow
this analysis statement. We had our best results ever for level 2 and 3, and also saw the gap between Māori
and non-Māori performance come very close to closing.
This is the fifth cohort to go through NCEA Level 1 with them, and all their teachers, having been part of the
implementation of the Te Kotahitanga professional development programme throughout their time at
Tauranga Girls’ College.

Analysis of Variance
As can be seen from the graphs above progress continues to be made with this target although the number
of students achieving merit or excellence endorsement has plateaued over the past three years. There has
also been a growth in the number of Māori students achieving merit and excellence, although a gap still
remains between their performance and that of non-Māori . This target will continue to be a focus for us.

Target 3:
Students in each junior cohort will progress more than 2 curriculum sub-levels
over the year in both literacy and numeracy as measured by e-asTTle.
The decision was made in 2014 to move away from e-asTTle testing in favour of PAT tests. The following
information shows curriculum level performance across junior school cohorts, but is not e-asTTle referenced.

The graphs on the junior school performance show the performance of the 2014 cohort over the last two
years, both as an overview of Māori and non-Māori performance and also by core subject. In order to have
made this progress with the Junior Diploma (the shift in numbers at entire curriculum levels), these students
must have shifted their performance by at least 2 sub-levels each year.
Analysis of Variance
This target was a global one for both Year Nine and Year Ten and therefore averages out the performance of
students in the two extension classes with that of students in the booster class. While this target was
achieved, in 2015 there will be focus on the performance in context of identified groups of students within
each cohort and academic conferencing being introduced to create feedback and feed forward to students to
assist learning. Creating change in response to student need does require closer identification and targeting
and we have been focussing on collecting good quality benchmark data.
Tauranga Girls’ College Annual Report and Financial Statements 2014

Aim 2: To provide inclusive learning environments that encourage participation in
academic, cultural and sporting arenas through a flexible, student centred
curriculum
Targets 1 to 4: A positive shift in levels of key competencies implementing PB4L, improved student
attendance to meet MoE benchmark of 90% at all levels, positive involvement in
activities outside the classroom and positive shift in levels of learning behaviours
Students in each junior cohort will progress more than 2 curriculum sub-levels
These targets areover

of these targets all students were monitored in their approach to learning through learning competencies
and all tutors and teachers were given attendance feedback each week.
Tutors and teachers called home to check on attendance and to establish positive relationships with
members of their tutor groups. Extra-curricular involvement in the junior school was monitored via the junior
diploma school wide participation statistics.
Analysis of Variance
Through 2014 all parts of this target showed improvement, with intermittent attendance in particular being
addressed. Records of data shared with teachers and tutors are held by the senior leadership team and
middle management. In 2015 academic conferencing by tutors will be added to the strategies used to
address student engagement.
Aim 3: To demonstrate commitment to biculturalism and the principles of the
Treaty of Waitangi acknowledging the unique place of Māori, and to respect all
ethnic groups represented at the school.
Target 1:
Kia Eke Panuku (Building on Success) is implemented across the school, through
observations in all classrooms, co-construction action meetings and building of
community links.
The college successfully transitioned from the Te Kotahitanga Initiative to involvement in Building on Success,
later titled Kia Eke Panuku, with senior and middle leadership involved in 2014. The initiative is led by a
facilitating team that includes a variety of teaching and leadership backgrounds.
Analysis of Variance
The layers of school leadership involved in (Building on Success), Kia Eke Panuku led to the formation of a
new team to implement this initiative. Acton planning was one key area of change and co-construction
meetings one area of continuity of practice from 2013.
The work done in 2014 was both to maintain the classroom focus and also to build on the professional
learning cycle to embed Kia Eke Panuku practices.
Tauranga Girls’ College Annual Report and Financial Statements 2014

Aim 4: To continue the promotion of Tauranga Girls’ College as the preferred
provider of quality education for young women.
Target 1:
Internal networking of the aims, goals and objectives for learning, as well as student
success promotes awareness within the school of the quality of education provision
In 2014 the school newsletter was available on line and the frequency of newsletters was bi-monthly, with
one being solely on line and the other available in both print and electronic form. This increased the
availability of information to the community of Tauranga. An electronic sign was also installed at the front of
the school to provide updated information to our school community.
Improvements in academic performance, gaining of scholarships and sporting and arts successes all provided
evidence that was communicated to the wider community and confirms the quality of education available at
the college.
The parent portal to KAMAR continued to be popular means for students and their families to access on-line
attendance, academic results, reports and participation records in real time.
Analysis of Variance
Improved and more frequent communication was one way to increase awareness of the Tauranga Girls’
College brand. On-line, real time communication enhanced both our brand and profile.
Target 2:
External networking of the aims, goals and objectives for learning, as well as student
success promotes awareness in the wider community the school of the quality of
education provision
The college website, professionally redesigned and revamped in 2007 to include a content management
system that allows more people access to placing material on the site was further adjusted in 2014 to
increase editability and access so that more material could be added and the site be kept more up to date.
Daily Notices, the bi-monthly newsletter, Board minutes, the Prospectus and all Principal’s reports are
available to parents through the site. The number of hits on the website increased throughout 2014.
Analysis of Variance
The website continued to be increasingly utilised in 2014 as issues of access and expertise in using the editing
facilities were overcome, despite the lack of time available to undertake training.
The website itself is the school’s public face and communicates general information. Portals for Moodle and
the on-line learning environment developed during 2014 to be a very useful tool for parents and students
and supported the website by providing the flexibility of sustainable access for teaching and learning.

Statement of Responsibility
The Board of Trustees has pleasure in presenting the annual report of Tauranga Girls’ College, incorporating
the financial statements and the auditor’s report, for the year ended 31 December 2014.
The Board accepts responsibility for the preparation of the annual financial statements and the judgements
used in these statements.
The management (including the Principal and others as directed by the Board) accepts responsibility for
establishing and maintaining a system of internal control designed to provide reasonable assurance as to the
integrity and reliability of the school’s financial reporting.
In the opinion of the Board and management, the annual financial statements for the financial year fairly
reflect the financial position and operations of the school.
During the 2012 year the Ministry of Education introduced a new payroll system, Novopay, which has
resulted in many errors. To the best of our knowledge, all material matters are properly reflected in the
financial statements.
The school’s 2014 financial statements are authorised for issue by the Board Chairperson and Principal.

Notes to the Financial Statements
For the year ended 31 December 2014
1. Statement of Significant Accounting Policies
a) Reporting Entity
Tauranga Girls’ College (the School) is a Crown entity as specified in the Crown Entities Act 2004 and a school as
described in the Education Act 1989. The Board of Trustees is of the view the School is a public benefit entity for
financial reporting purposes.
b) Basis of Preparation
Financial reporting standards applied
The Education Act 1989 requires the School, as a Crown entity, to prepare financial statements in accordance with
generally accepted accounting practice. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting practice in New Zealand, applying New Zealand Equivalents to International Financial Reporting
Standards (NZ IFRS) as appropriate to public benefit entities that qualify for differential reporting.
Differential reporting
The School qualifies for differential reporting exemptions because it is not publicly accountable as defined in the
Framework for Differential Reporting (the Framework) and it is not large. Many of the reporting exemptions available
under the Framework have been applied.
Measurement base
The financial statements are prepared on the historical cost basis unless otherwise noted in a specific accounting policy.
Presentation currency
These financial statements are presented in New Zealand dollars.
Specific accounting policies
The accounting policies used in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. The policies have been
consistently applied to all the years presented.
c) Income Recognition
Government grants
Operational grants are recorded as income as received. Teachers’ salaries grants are not received in cash by the school
but are paid directly to teachers by the Ministry of Education (the Ministry). They are recorded as income in the salary
period they relate to. Other grants are recorded as income as received unless there are unfulfilled conditions attaching
to the grant, in which case the amount relating to the unfulfilled conditions is recognised as a liability and released to
income as the conditions are fulfilled.
Grants for the use of land and buildings are also not received in cash by the School as they equate to the deemed
expense for using the land and buildings which are owned by the Crown. Use of land and building grants are recorded as
income in the period the school uses the land and buildings.
Tauranga Girls’ College Annual Report and Financial Statements 2014
21
Donations
Donations, gifts and bequests are recorded as income when their receipt is formally acknowledged by the School.
Interest income
Interest income on cash and cash equivalents and investments is recorded as income in the period it is earned.
d) Use of Land and Buildings Expense
The property from which the School operates is owned by the Crown and managed by the Ministry on behalf of the
Crown. The School’s use of the land and buildings as occupant is based on a property occupancy document as gazetted
by the Ministry. The expense is based on an assumed market rental yield on the value of land and buildings as used for
rating purposes. This is a non-cash expense that is offset by a non-cash grant from the Ministry.
e) Operating Lease Payments
Payments made under operating leases are recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income on a straight line
basis over the term of the lease.
f) Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, bank balances, deposits held at call with banks, and other short term
highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. The carrying amount of
cash and cash equivalents represent fair value.
g) Accounts Receivable
‘Accounts Receivable’ represents items that the School has issued invoices for, but has not received payment for at year
end. They are initially recorded at fair value and subsequently recorded at the amount the School realistically expects to
receive. A provision for impairment of Accounts Receivable is established where there is objective evidence the School
will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the debt.
h) Investments
Investments are held with registered trading banks and are classified as current assets if they have maturities of
between three months and one year. Those with maturities greater than 12 months after the balance date are
classified as non-current assets.
After initial recognition investments are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method less
impairment.
Share investments held by the School are measured at fair value. If shares do not have a quoted market price in an
active market and fair value cannot be reliably measured, the shares are measured at cost. Any movements in shares
measured at fair value are recognised in equity.
At balance date the School assesses whether there is any objective evidence that an investment is impaired. Any
impairment loss is recorded as an expense in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
The School has met the requirements under section 73 of the Education Act 1989 in relation to the acquisition of
securities.
i) Property, Plant and Equipment
Land and buildings owned by the Crown are excluded from these financial statements. The Board’s use of the land and
buildings as ‘occupant’ is based on a property occupancy document.
Tauranga Girls’ College Annual Report and Financial Statements 2014
22
Improvements to buildings owned by the Crown are recorded at cost, less accumulated depreciation and impairment
losses.
Property, plant and equipment are recorded at cost or, in the case of donated assets, fair value at the date of receipt,
less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Cost or fair value as the case may be, includes those costs that
relate directly to bringing the asset to the location where it will be used and making sure it is in the appropriate
condition for its intended use.
Property, plant and equipment acquired with individual values under $1,000 are not capitalised, they are recognised as
an expense in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
Gains and losses on disposals (i.e. sold or given away) are determined by comparing the proceeds received with the
carrying amounts (i.e. the book value). The gain or loss arising from the disposal of an item of property, plant and
equipment is recognised in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
j) Depreciation
Property, plant and equipment except for library resources are depreciated over their estimated useful lives on a
straight line basis. Library resources are depreciated on a diminishing value basis. Depreciation of all assets is reported
in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
The estimated useful lives of the assets are:
Building improvements – Crown
50 years
Furniture and equipment
10 years
Information and communication technology
5 years
Motor vehicles
5 years
Textbooks
12.5% Diminishing value
Library resources
12.5% Diminishing value
k) Accounts payable
‘Accounts Payable’ represents liabilities for goods and services provided to the School prior to the end of the financial
year which are unpaid. Accounts Payable are recorded at the amount of cash required to settle those liabilities. The
amounts are unsecured and are usually paid within 30 days of recognition.
l) Employee Entitlements
Salary Accruals
Salary accruals mainly reflect annual leave owing to teachers and ancillary staff and are recognised in respect of
employees' services to balance date and are measured at the amounts expected to be paid when the liabilities are
settled. There is a corresponding teacher’s salaries grant receivable from the Ministry to fund the liability.
Leave Accruals
No provision is required to be recognised for sick leave for any teachers, irrespective of whether a school is above its
teaching entitlement as in practice most teacher sick leave is grant funded by the Ministry.
Tauranga Girls’ College Annual Report and Financial Statements 2014
23
m) Income Received in Advance
Income received in advance relates to fees received from international and hostel students where there are unfulfilled
obligations for the School to provide services in the future. The fees are recorded as revenue as the obligations are
fulfilled and the fees earned.
The School holds sufficient funds to enable the refund of unearned fees in relation to international students, should the
School be unable to provide the services to which they relate.
n) Funds held in trust
Funds are held in trust where they have been received by the School for a specified purpose. The School holds sufficient
funds to enable the funds to be used for their intended purpose at any time.
o) Provision for Cyclical Maintenance
The property from which the School operates is owned by the Crown, and is vested in the Ministry. The Ministry has
gazetted a property occupancy document that sets out the Board’s property maintenance responsibilities. The Board is
responsible for maintaining the land, buildings and other facilities on the School site in a state of good order and repair.
Cyclical maintenance, which involves painting the interior and exterior of the School, makes up the most significant part
of the Board’s responsibilities outside day-to-day maintenance. The provision for cyclical maintenance represents the
obligation the Board has to the Ministry and is based on the Board’s ten year property plan (10YP).
p) Financial Assets and Liabilities
The School’s financial assets comprise cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, GST receivable and investments.
All of these financial assets, except for investments that are shares, are categorised as “loans and receivables” for
accounting purposes in accordance with financial reporting standards.
Investments that are shares are categorised as “available for sale” for accounting purposes in accordance with financial
reporting standards.
The School’s financial liabilities comprise accounts payable, funds held on behalf of the Ministry of Education, painting
contract liability, provision for cyclical maintenance and GST payable. All of these financial liabilities are categorised as
“financial liabilities measured at amortised cost” for accounting purposes in accordance with financial reporting
standards.
q) Shared Funds
Shared Funds are held on behalf of participating schools within a cluster of schools. The School holds sufficient funds to
enable the funds to be used for their intended purpose.
r) Goods and Services Tax (GST)
The financial statements have been prepared on a GST exclusive basis, with the exception of accounts receivable and
accounts payable which are stated as GST inclusive.
s) Budget Figures
The budget figures are extracted from the School budget that was approved by the Board of Trustees.

The use of land and buildings figure represents 8% of the school’s total property value. Property values are
established as part of the nation-wide revaluation exercise that is conducted every 30 June for the Ministry of
Education’s year-end reporting purposes. Following consultation, certain changes to the revaluation methodology
were adopted as part of the 30 June 2012 revaluation exercise. These changes improved the previous revaluation
methodology, and have resulted in an improvement to the quality of calculations. These improvements will be
carried forward into future revaluations.

The board has a cash management plan to ensure that sufficient cash is available to meet all maintenance obligations
as they fall due over the next 10 years. The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the expenditure
required to settle the present obligations at 31 December 2014. Present obligations are identified in the school's
current 10-year property plan approved by the Ministry of Education on 12 November 2012. The provision has not
been adjusted for inflation and the effect of the time value of money.

school. The school enters into transactions with other entities also controlled by the Crown, such as government
departments, state-owned enterprises and other Crown entities. Transactions with these entities are not disclosed
