Four reports have been produced:

A report of the findings of the kaupapa Māori case study in kura kaupapa Māori and kura-a-iwi. This report was produced by Te Wāhanga, the kaupapa Māori research team of the NZ Council for Educational Research, and helps address the dearth of research in this area.
A report on the English medium school case study findings, undertaken by the Education Review Office (ERO).
A short literature scan on school-based social work programmes that presents how such programmes are conducted internationally compared to SWiS in Aotearoa NZ, undertaken by the Oranga Tamariki Evidence Centre.
