My family and I have a good idea whereabouts we would ideally love to live in New Zealand (Hawkes Bay area) - and there seem to be pretty good schools there however, that's according to their own websites hence they're biased.

Is there a 'body' as such that regulates and inspects school's progress and achievements? Like the UK's Ofsted?

Many thanks!
