Create a clear and consistent approach to professional development across your ECE service with this comprehensive, ready-to-use policy.

The policy provides a practical framework covering Induction & Onboarding, Compliance and Required Learning, Professional Growth, and Leadership Development.

It includes guidance for supporting the Professional Growth Cycle (PGC) for certificated teachers, as well as induction and mentoring for provisionally certificated teachers working towards a full practising certificate.

The policy covers:

• Induction and onboarding of new employees
• Compliance and required professional learning
• Professional Growth Cycles
• Professional inquiry, goals, observation and feedback
• Induction and mentoring for provisionally certificated teachers
• Responsibilities of fully certificated teachers and professional leaders
• Practising certificate review and endorsement
• Leadership development
• Professional development support and record keeping

Designed specifically for New Zealand ECE services, the policy can be customised with your service name and logo and incorporated into your existing policy framework.
