"We look forward to working with the LSM Paul Howison," the school statement said.
"We want to assure the whānau that this move is in the best interest of our Kura, which is a proud flagbearer of Māori and Anglican education.
"It is Hukarere's time to forge ahead and the new leadership is determined to provide an education that upholds the special character - te mihingare - and gives our young ladies the opportunity to be better than the best."
The notice of direction to appoint a LSM in the Gazette states that the LSM will take over a number of duties from the board including its role as an employer, its ability to establish policies and procedures, its management of financial operations and the management of communications.
Howison said his first task will be carrying out a scoping exercise to "identify areas of strength and areas for further development".
"I am honoured to have been appointed LSM at Hukarere and I am looking forward to getting to know the staff, Board, students and whānau," he said.
Howison said during the intervention the Board of Trustees will remain in place and the LSM will work with board members to assist them with their roles.
The LSM will take responsibility for some areas of school governance but day-to-day running of the school remains with the principal.
The intervention will be reveiwed regularly by MoE to decide how long it will remain in place.
