Ko tā te PLD ā-rohe he āwhina i tō school, kura, Kāhui Ako, cluster hoki ki te tautohu, whakamahere, ahu whakamua hoki i te ako me te whakawhanake ngaio mō ō kaiako.

Mā te tukanga whakamahere, mahi, arotake hoki, ka hanga te PLD ā-rohe i te āheitanga o tō school, kura, Kāhui Ako, cluster hoki ki te tautoko i ōna ākonga.

Mēnā kua whiwhi kē koe i te whakaritenga PLD i mua i te wāhanga 1 o 2020, ā, kei te mahi koe i te ripanga hautaka PLD, me whakamahi tonu tēnei, kia oti rā anō tō PLD, kia tukua hoki te pūrongo whakamutunga.

Regional allocation panel reviews applications Ka arotakengia ngā tono e ngā pae tuari ā-rohe

After the application closing date, regional office staff process all the applications. Regional allocation panels meet and make allocation recommendations that the Regional Director of Education approves. 

Ā muri i te rā kati, ka whakahaere ngā kaimahi o ngā tari ā-rohe i ngā tono katoa. Ka hui, ka whakatau tūtohu ritenga ngā pae tuari ā-rohe (regional allocation panels) ka whakaaaetia e te Regional Director of Education.

5
PLD is approved or not approved Ka whakaaetia, kāore e whakaaetia rānei te PLD

Within five weeks of submitting their application, PLD leads receive an email asking them to log into the online PLD system to see the outcome of their application.

Applications may receive less or more hours than they requested, depending on the allocation decision.

If an application is not approved, applicants can contact their regional office for feedback.

Reasons why an application is declined could include:

  • a lack of PLD hours available in the region
  • existing allocations/commitments
  • greater need perceived elsewhere
  • previous PLD for the same areas not showing growth
  • application not matched to school need or any PLD priorities.

If an application is not approved in one round, you are able to respond to the feedback from the regional office and submit an updated application in the next round.

I roto i te 5 wiki i muri i te tuku i te tono, ka tae atu he īmēra ki ngā kaihautū PLD me te tohutohu atu kia takiuru ki te pūnaha PLD ā-tuihono kia kitea te hua o tā rātou tono.

Ka maha ake, ka iti iho rānei ngā haora ka riro tērā i tonoa e rātou. Mā te whakataunga whakaritenga e tohu.

Ki te kore e whakaaetia tētahi tono, ka taea e ngā kaitono te whakapā atu ki te tari ā-rohe mō te urupare.

Anei peangā take mō te whakapeka i te tono:

  • te iti rawa atu o ngā haora PLD e wātea ana i te rohe
  • ngā whakaritenga/herenga o tēnei wā
  • e kitea ana  te hiahia nui ake ki wāhi kē
  • kāore te tipu i puta mai i te PLD o mua mō taua wāhi tonu
  • kāore i hāngai atu te tono ki te hiahia o te kura, ki ngā whāinga tōmua rānei o tētahi PLD.

Ki te kore e whakaaetia te tono i tētahi rauna, ka āhei te whakahoki i te urupare mai i te tari ā-rohe, te tuku i te tono kua whakahoungia hei tērā rauna whai ake.

If the application is approved, the PLD lead selects facilitator(s) to work with. They can choose more than one, but all facilitators must be listed in the Facilitator search tool. 

PLD leads then allocate hours to the facilitator(s) in the online PLD system. This information needs to be entered within six months (or two terms) of the allocation decision date or PLD hours may be withdrawn. All PLD hours must be used within the approved timeframe.

Me whakapau ngā haora PLD katoa i roto i te wā i whakaaetia.

Rapua he kōrero mō te āhua o te kotahi haora PLD.

Agree to a Statement of Work (SOW) Whakaaetia tētahi Tauākītanga Mahi, arā, he 'Statement of Work' (SOW)

Once the facilitator is confirmed, PLD leads work with them to refine the focus and desired outcomes of the PLD.

PLD providers and the Ministry of Education agree to and issue a SOW, including a provision for travel if needed. 

Ina whakatūturutia te kaihuawaere, ka mahi ngā kaihautū PLD ki tō tōna taha, ka āta arotahi atu ki ngā putanga e hiahiatia ana i te PLD.

Ka whakaae ngā kaiwhakarato PLD me te Tāhuhu o te Mātauranga ki te SOW, ki te tuku i te SOW hoki, tae atu ki te wāhanga mō te haerenga, ki te hiahiatia.
