Kindergarten teachers' collective and individual employment agreements

Who is covered by the collective agreement

Kindergarten teachers covered by the agreement are:

• employed by kindergarten associations
• members of the kindergarten teachers’ union, the New Zealand Educational Institute Te Riu Roa (NZEI Te Riu Roa).

Go to the Kindergarten Teachers, Head Teachers and Senior Teachers' Collective Agreement (KTCA).

Who is covered by an individual employment agreement

Individual employment agreements (IEAs) are developed and published by us. The terms and conditions are similar to the collective agreement.

You need to sign an IEA if:

• your work is covered by the KTCA, but
• you are not a member of the NZEI Te Riu Roa.
