Info for principals and payroll administrators

This page has information for principals and payroll administrators about the salary assessment process.

Payroll administrators will need to:

  • ensure the teacher has the Salary assessment application for teachers form (EP7t) 

  • encourage teachers to read the guidance on this website before beginning their application​

  • submit the teacher’s EP7t form and any supporting documents to salaryassessment@novopay.govt.nz on their behalf. If the teacher is using My eQuals, insert the link in the body of the email you send to the salary assessment team, when you submit the EP7t and supporting documents.

Principals will need to:
  • approve previous work experience if it is relevant to the teacher’s job description and/or pastoral duties​
  • ensure that all supporting documents are certified​
  • check and sign off the teacher's EP7t form.
