Part-time secondary teachers' additional hours
The Secondary Teachers’ Collective Agreement 2023 – 2025 includes a change to the way part-time teachers are paid for additional hours worked.
From term 3 2024, the secondary part -time additional hours pay code (SPTAH) will no longer be available.
If a part-time teacher works additional hours, their Full Time Teacher Equivalent (FTTE) should be increased, or this work should be coded using the short-term reliever (DDR) pay code, depending on the type and length of work they are undertaking. Please take a look at this guidance from the Ministry of Education and the PPTA:
