1.3 - Analysis of Significant Trends
Significant changes in departmental and non-departmental appropriations related to early childhood education and schooling between 2014/15 and 2022/23 are discussed briefly below.
Departmental Expenditure
The largest component of departmental output expenditure relates to the provision of school land and buildings, including capital charge, depreciation, and Public Private Partnership contractual payments. The major changes here relate to movements in the value of the property portfolio after additional government investment in schools, the annual revaluation of the portfolio and property disposals. In 2016/17, the capital charge rate was reduced from 8% to 7% from 1 July 2016 and to 6% from 1 January 2017.
Other significant changes to departmental funding include:
- increased provision for services for students with learning support needs, including provision for teacher aides, and additional in-class support, provision for intensive wraparound services, adjustments to funding levels for the Ongoing Resourcing Scheme, School High Health Needs Fund and other supports (both for price and volume changes) and settlements of related collective agreements. This is partly offset by a transfer of some Ongoing Resourcing Scheme funding to the Learning Support non-departmental output expense category under Outcomes for Target Student Groups MCA where it is managed by other providers
- support for Youth Mental Health initiatives and other initiatives like assessments for vulnerable children and achievement and investment management
- development of new education schools payroll systems and subsequent enhancements for managing technology risks and increasing efficiency along with related advisory services, the development of other systems, such as Education Sector identity and Access Management, the Early Learning Information System and an education-wide funding system
- support for ultra-fast broadband in schools, including the implementation of the School Network Upgrade Project and initiatives to support the implementation of a managed network for all schools
- support for the implementation of Youth Guarantee initiatives
- support for the design and delivery of curriculum resources for students and teachers in Maori language in education provision, in particular Maori-medium education
- provision for improving and accelerating education outcomes for Pacific learners to ensure they and their families have their identities, languages and cultures valued and respected and have the skills, knowledge, and equitable opportunities to pursue any education pathway
- support for the implementation of Communities of Learning from 2014/15 and peaking in 2017/18 and 2018/19
- provision for improving data quality, availability and timeliness which will enable the education system to know about the people in its care and how best to position services in a timely and efficient manner that will address the needs of each learner and their community and whanau
- provision of demand-driven services provided to other public service agencies on a cost recovery basis
- provision for the cost of establishing, designing and implementing required changes to ensure that the schools payroll service is compliant with Holidays Act 2003 legislation as well as considering recent pay equity claims, and
- support for the implementation of changes in the Education Act 1989 to deliver increased student achievement.
Departmental output expense appropriations Interventions for Target Student Groups and Support and Resources for Teachers were moved to multi-category appropriations from 2016/17, and Stewardship of the Education System and Policy Advice were moved to another multi-category appropriation from 2017/18.
Departmental Capital Expenditure
Most capital expenditure for the Ministry of Education relates to the State school property portfolio, either through school projects or projects managed by the Ministry. Movements between years mainly relate to factors such as site purchases and the timing of new schools' roll-growth classrooms and redevelopment projects. There is also an increased focus on expenditure in Christchurch to reflect demographic change or remediate damage from the 2010 and 2011 earthquakes. Also included is expenditure on school Information and Communications Technology (ICT) network upgrades (including broadband) as well as the development of information systems.
Capital Injections
Additional capital provided to the Ministry over the period mainly relates to the expansion of the school property portfolio, the Christchurch Schools Rebuild Programme, repayment of service concession liabilities to the private sector partners for school build under Public Private Partnerships, school ICT network upgrades, energy efficiency initiatives in schools, and for the development and upgrade of information systems such as the Education Resourcing System.
Non-Departmental Outputs
From 2018/19, most non-departmental other expense appropriations and categories under multi-category appropriations were reclassified as non-departmental output expenses, including Early Childhood Education, Primary Education, Secondary Education and Learning Support. A new multi-category appropriation called Oversight and Administration of the Qualifications System MCA has been created from 2018/19 comprising the functions and activities of the New Zealand Qualifications Authority (NZQA). The non-departmental output expenses: Quality Assurance, Qualifications Support Structures, Secondary School Assessments and part of Provision of Information and Advisory Services (disestablished), along with other expense Remission of Fees, have been combined under this MCA.
Changes in non-departmental output expenses are principally owing to a combination of:
- roll-related increases in early childhood education sessional payments, as well as revised funding rates and increased provision for equity funding
- roll-related increases in funding for schooling, including teacher salaries, as well as provision for improved operations funding rates for schools
- the impact of wage settlements for teachers and principals (including the flow-on of these costs to the early childhood education sector), as well as changes to Accident Compensation Commission (ACC) rates and take up of superannuation subsidies and corrective payments for current and former school staff who have not been paid in accordance with the requirements of the Holidays Act 2003
- funding for schools to replace parental donations to alleviate financial pressure on families who struggle to pay school donations, as well as benefiting eligible schools by providing greater certainty of revenue or increased revenue
- other initiatives in the schooling sector, including provision for English for Speakers of Other Languages, and Youth Guarantee services, with reallocations from Youth Guarantee funding (in Vote Tertiary Education) for additional Trades Academy places
- restarting Te Kotahitanga to supporting equitable outcomes for Maori learners by addressing cultural bias and racism in the education system (Te Hurihanganui) and supporting whanau to engage in the education of Maori learners (Mana Whanau)
- support for the implementation of Communities of Learning from 2015
- steady growth in the demand for (and costs) of school transport services, partly offset by efficiency savings identified in 2015/16 and 2016/17
- transfer of Ongoing Resourcing Scheme funding managed by third party providers to Learning Support from departmental output category Interventions for Target Student Groups from 2015/16 as well as bolstering the support for other interventions for children and young people with learning support needs
- support for the Teaching Council (previously Education Council) of Aotearoa New Zealand from 2015/16 to deliver its new functions under the Education Amendment Act 2015 and provision for Council practising certificate fees as part of the settlement of various Teachers' and Principals' Collective Agreements
- various initiatives to continue to increase the levels of teacher supply for the future complimented in Vote Tertiary Education
- support for New Zealand Qualifications Authority development of National Certificate of Educational Achievement Online for delivery of digital assessments and learning as well as removal of the NCEA assessment fee for all students
- impact of reprioritisation decisions and other efficiencies including improving the cost-effectiveness of professional learning and development from 2016/17
- provision for the Home Interaction Programme for Parents and Youngsters moved from Vote Social Development from 2016/17
- the transfer of career services functions to Vote Tertiary Education (Tertiary Education Commission) from 2017/18, and
- provision for a Teacher-Led Innovation Fund from 2015/16 to 2018/19.
Non-departmental output expense appropriations Professional Development and Support, Curriculum Support, Students Attendance and Engagement, and Service Academies were moved to multi-category appropriations from 2016/17. The Education Research Initiatives and the Independent Advice on Government Priority Area component of the Provision of Information and Advisory Services (disestablished) appropriation also moved to a multi-category appropriation from 2017/18.
Benefits or Related Expenses
From 2018/19, most Benefits or Related Expenses appropriations were consolidated under two separate appropriations, Scholarships and Awards for Students and Scholarships and Awards for Teachers and Trainees. The major variance from then is related to impact of teacher supply initiatives.
Non-Departmental Other Expenses
Non-departmental other expenses comprised the majority of funding in Vote Education until 2018/19 when most of these appropriations or categories under multi-category appropriations were reclassified as non-departmental output expenses, including Early Childhood Education, Primary Education, Secondary Education and Learning Support. Discussion of changes to baselines under these appropriations over the forecast period is therefore reflected under non-departmental output expenses above.
Of the remaining other expense appropriations, the major changes relate to:
- provision for increased property grants due to changes in State-integrated school rolls, and the impact on funding integrated schools from the funding model linked to the movement in the value of the State school property portfolio
- contributions to the cost of new State-integrated schools or additional classrooms, including from removal of the charter schools model
- recognition of the impact of past education policy changes on property-related costs at State-integrated schools, as well as provision for seismic strengthening of buildings in greater Christchurch, and
- provision for occasional impairment and balance sheet adjustments.
Non-Departmental Capital Expenditure
The major changes in non-departmental capital expenditure over the period relate to provision for furniture and equipment for new school buildings, including funding for broadband initiatives and school network upgrades. Other significant changes include:
- ceasing incentives for the disposal of surplus properties after 2014/15, and
- a transfer of assets to Education Payroll Limited, as well as provision of working capital in 2014/15 and a loan for the sustainability of the payroll in 2018/19 and 2019/20.

---|---|---|---|
Assessment of Performance | Final Budgeted Standard |
Estimated Actual |
Budget Standard |
The Ministry is seen as a high quality property manager for government as measured by the Asset Management maturity index for the school property portfolio (see Note 1). |
75% - 80% | 75% - 80% | 75% - 80% |
Percentage of State schools where the number of entitled teaching spaces (based on their rolls) is between 75% and 105% of the number of physical teaching spaces (see Note 2). |
65% | 65% - 70% | 67% |
Percentage of State school buildings with property-related elements of Innovative Learning Environment assessments showing functionality score of '3' or better (see Note 3). |
65% | 65% - 70% | 65% |
Percentage of State school buildings with an assessed maintenance forecast for the next 10 years that is no more than 20% of their replacement value, as an indicator of condition (see Note 4). |
85% | 85% - 90% | 88% |
Note 1 - The Asset Management maturity index scale is 0-20% Aware, 20-40% Minimum, 40-60% Core, 60-80% Intermediate, and 80-100% Advanced on the index criteria established by the Treasury.
Note 2 - This is a measure of the funding efficiency of teaching space provision in the school property portfolio, and does not directly measure the user experience at schools (eg, overcrowding). Running the large school property portfolio is expensive and good utilisation performance helps to minimise this cost. The target range of 75% to 105% recognises that below 75% there is likely to be excess capacity, which may be inefficient to operate or may be expensive to remove, and above 105% there may be a need for new teaching spaces to be built. The measure excludes schools with 100 or fewer students and new schools because our policy settings allow for different (lower) levels of utilisation for operational reasons. Nevertheless, the measure covers more than 90% of State schools by area, and nearly 95% by student enrolments.
Note 3 - This is a measure of the functionality of school property based on the most recent Innovative Learning Environment (ILE) assessments undertaken. ILE assessments are undertaken every five years for most schools as part of their 10-year property planning process. The functionality of buildings is scored on a nominal scale of 1 to 5 (1 being the highest functionality rating) based on the extent to which the building is assessed as being compliant (0%, 50% or 100%) with requirements for Designing Quality Learning Space (DQLS), Health and Hygiene (H&H) and Flexible Learning Spaces (FLS). A rating of 1 applies to buildings which comply with DQLS, H&H and FLS criteria. A rating of 2 applies to buildings which score 100% for both DQLS and H&H criteria. A rating of 3 applies to buildings which have either a score of at least 50% for both DQLS and H&H criteria or 100% for one of these criteria. A rating of 4 applies to buildings which score 50% for one of the DQLS and H&H criteria. A rating of 5 applies to buildings which score 0% for both DQLS and H&H criteria. This measure covers the majority of school buildings (around 67% of buildings by area), and is increasing each year as more schools re-enter the 10-year property planning process.
Note 4 - This is a measure of the relative level of maintenance required across the portfolio based on the most recent condition assessments undertaken. Condition assessments are undertaken every five years for most schools as part of their 10-year property planning process. State school buildings with 10-year maintenance requirements that cost no more than 20% of their replacement value indicates these assets are being sustainably well maintained. The measure covers around 85% of buildings by area across 97% of schools. Exclusions are: minor school buildings (such as sheds, ancillary buildings and covered ways) with a replacement cost under $100,000; buildings that are classified as only requiring minimal maintenance or those that have been "mothballed"; and low value maintenance jobs (less than $5,000).
End of Year Performance Reporting
Performance information for this appropriation will be reported by the Ministry of Education in its annual report.

- continuation of the New Zealand Schools Public Private Partnership programme ($13.195 million increase)
- increased provision for capital charge and depreciation relating to the capital injection for the continuation of the Christchurch Schools Rebuild programme ($6.069 million increase)
- property portfolio management activity funded by revenue from the sale of property in 2018/19 ($12.477 million decrease), and
- capital to operating swaps in 2018/19 only covering the increased cost of the Cash for Buildings funding programme and leasing short-term accommodation for decanting students during a major capital redevelopment at schools ($7.970 million decrease).

- provision to improve and accelerate education outcomes for Pacific learners ($6.787 million increase)
- reduced provision for strengthening frontline service delivery to support student achievement ($5.813 million decrease), and teacher supply response package ($1.300 million decrease)
- transfer in 2018/19 from departmental output expense category Interventions for Target Student Groups in Outcomes for Target Student Groups MCA to ensure effective support to schools and early childhood centres ($2.500 million decrease), and

Percentage of State schools where the number of entitled teaching spaces (based on their rolls) is between 75% and 105% of the number of physical teaching spaces (see Note 1). |

Percentage of State school buildings with property-related elements of Innovative Learning Environment assessments showing functionality score of '3' or better (see Note 2). |
65% | 65% - 70% | 65% |
Percentage of State school buildings with an assessed maintenance forecast for the next 10 years that is no more than 20% of their replacement value, as an indicator of condition (see Note 3). |
85% | 85% - 90% | 88% |
Note 1 - This is a measure of the funding efficiency of teaching space provision in the school property portfolio, and does not directly measure the user experience at schools (eg, overcrowding). Running the large school property portfolio is expensive and good utilisation performance helps to minimise this cost. The target range of 75% to 105% recognises that below 75% there is likely to be excess capacity, which may be inefficient to operate or may be expensive to remove, and above 105% there may be a need for new teaching spaces to be built. The measure excludes schools with 100 or fewer students and new schools because our policy settings allow for different (lower) levels of utilisation for operational reasons. Nevertheless, the measure covers more than 90% of State schools by area, and nearly 95% by student enrolments.
Note 2 - This is a measure of the functionality of school property based on the most recent Innovative Learning Environment (ILE) assessments undertaken. ILE assessments are undertaken every five years for most schools as part of their 10-year property planning process. The functionality of buildings is scored on a nominal scale of 1 to 5 (1 being the highest functionality rating) based on the extent to which the building is assessed as being compliant (0%, 50% or 100%) with requirements for Designing Quality Learning Space (DQLS), Health and Hygiene (H&H) and Flexible Learning Spaces (FLS). A rating of 1 applies to buildings which comply with DQLS, H&H and FLS criteria. A rating of 2 applies to buildings which score 100% for both DQLS and H&H criteria. A rating of 3 applies to buildings which have either a score of at least 50% for both DQLS and H&H criteria or 100% for one of these criteria. A rating of 4 applies to buildings which score 50% for one of the DQLS and H&H criteria. A rating of 5 applies to buildings which score 0% for both DQLS and H&H criteria. This measure covers the majority of school buildings (around 67% of buildings by area), and is increasing each year as more schools re-enter the 10-year property planning process.
Note 3 - This is a measure of the relative level of maintenance required across the portfolio based on the most recent condition assessments undertaken. Condition assessments are undertaken every five years for most schools as part of their 10-year property planning process. State school buildings with 10-year maintenance requirements that cost no more than 20% of their replacement value indicates these assets are being sustainably well maintained. The measure covers around 85% of buildings by area across 97% of schools. Exclusions are: minor school buildings (such as sheds, ancillary buildings and covered ways) with a replacement cost under $100,000; buildings that are classified as only requiring minimal maintenance or those that have been "mothballed"; and low value maintenance jobs (less than $5,000).

- the transfer from 2017/18 to 2018/19 due to the issue or renewal of practising certificates for individual teachers being later than expected ($5.500 million decrease), and
- increased provision to meet the funding agreement extension ($9.600 million increase).

Reasons for Change in Appropriation
The $35.697 million decrease in this appropriation for 2019/20 is mainly due to a combination of:
- reduced provision for the Investing in Education Success programme ($16.263 million decrease), Progress and Consistency Tool/Te Waharoa Ararua enhancements ($1.782 million decrease) and Asian Languages Learning initiative ($1.025 million decrease)
- a transfer from 2017/18 in 2018/19 for centrally-funded professional learning and development ($14.723 million decrease)
- completion of A Progress Approach Across the Schooling System programme ($5.530 million decrease), and
- a transfer to Primary Education appropriation in 2018/19 to fund additional teacher supply initiatives ($3.875 million increase).

Reasons for Change in Appropriation
The $38.301 million increase in this appropriation for 2019/20 is mainly due to:
- higher teachers' salary costs mainly due to redistribution of salaries expenditure across Primary Education, Secondary Education and Learning Support and to the impacts of higher-than expected national rolls projections ($14.321 million)
- provision to address critical cost and demand pressure for children and young people ($12.543 million), and
- provision for increased demand for the Ongoing Resourcing Scheme ($7.763 million)
