The recently settled Support Staff in Schools’ Collective Agreement (SSSCA) 2022-24 makes available a $4 million of PLD funding for teacher aides and kaiārahi i te reo for the 2023 school year.

The fund recognises the important role Teacher Aides have in supporting education outcomes and provides financial support for professional learning opportunities related to that role. 

The 2023 fund opens to applications on 24 April 2023. The fund remains open until the SSSCA expires on 19 February 2024, or the available funding is fully allocated - whichever happens sooner. PLD accessed via this fund needs to be completed by the expiry of the Collective in February 2024.
