✨ Early Childhood Education Enrolment Criteria

990 NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE, No. 35 2 APRIL 2014

Access Special circumstances

Child does not fit any ECE gateway, but may be admitted by Te Kura – eg, where:

(a) a sibling has a medical condition such as a bone marrow transplant preventing, for reasons of cross-infection, the child attending a licensed and/or chartered ECE service; or

(b) the child’s caregiver has a medical condition preventing attendance at a licensed and/or chartered ECE service.

Referral Special development needs

Child has special development needs such that no licensed and/or chartered ECE service able to meet their needs is available within a reasonable distance or travel time.

Caregivers must provide a Ministry of Education – Special Education report detailing the nature of the child’s special development needs and immediate teaching needs. This report will include verification that no locally available service is able to meet the child’s special development needs.

Referral Ministry of Education

The child does not fit any ECE gateway and is referred by the Ministry of Education at its discretion as part of Government’s Better Public Service ECE goal to increase participation in ECE.

The Ministry of Education is the referral agency and all referrals must be signed off by a Ministry manager (or their delegate), who must be satisfied that:

(a) the child’s family/whānau faces multiple barriers (eg, transport and cultural barriers) in accessing a local face-to-face ECE service that meets their needs; and/or

(b) there is a high probability that without access to Te Kura, the child will have no, or less than optimal, access to ECE.

The Ministry referral letter must:

(a) clearly state how the child’s enrolment in Te Kura meets these criteria and the Better Public Service ECE goal; and

(c) set a date for Ministry review to ascertain whether the enrolment in ECE by distance education is still required for the child.
