Order

1 Title

This order is the Education (Payment of Relieving Teachers) Order 2012.

2 Commencement

This order comes into force on 21 September 2012.

3 Interpretation

(1)

In this order,—

FTTE means full-time teacher equivalent (as that term is used in staffing orders)

staffing order means an order, made annually, under section 582 of the Act.

(2)

In this order, unless the context otherwise requires, terms defined in the Act and used, but not defined, in this order have the same meaning as in the Act.

Clause 3(1) Act: amended, on 1 August 2020, by section 668 of the Education and Training Act 2020 (2020 No 38).

Clause 3(1) staffing order: amended, on 1 August 2020, by section 668 of the Education and Training Act 2020 (2020 No 38).

Clause 3(2): replaced, on 1 August 2020, by section 668 of the Education and Training Act 2020 (2020 No 38).

4 Declaration of circumstances justifying central payment of relieving teachers

(1)

This clause declares, in accordance with section 581(3) of the Act, the circumstances in which the employment of a relieving teacher justifies the central payment of the teacher’s salary.

(2)

The circumstances are that—

(a)

the relieving teacher is employed by the board of a school during a period in a school year when the teacher’s employment (counting the teacher as if he or she were a regular teacher) does not cause the number of regular teachers employed by the board to exceed the number of FTTEs that the board is entitled, under the staffing order applying to that year, to employ at the school; and

(b)

the board indicates to the Secretary that it wishes to count the employment of the relieving teacher during that period against its FTTE entitlements.

Clause 4(1): amended, on 1 August 2020, by section 668 of the Education and Training Act 2020 (2020 No 38).

Rebecca Kitteridge,
Clerk of the Executive Council.
