Remuneration - 2003 Survey of Teacher-led ECE services

Background

A survey of employees in early childhood education (ECE) teacher-led services was carried out in August 2003. 9,725 members of the workforce responded from Education and Care services, Kindergartens, Home-based services and the Correspondence School. Remuneration questions were only asked of those in Education and Care services and Home-based services.

Summary of Findings

• Employees move up the wage bands the longer they are employed.
  

• Qualified employees are paid more than non-qualified. Not surprisingly, registered employees are also paid more than non-registered.

• Employees in Wellington and Auckland are more likely to have higher remuneration than employees in other regions.
