Present, participating and progressing: key highlights from Budget 2022 to support an education system that is safe and inclusive for all.
Ākonga are the centre of education investment.
The Budget 2022 education package totals more than $2 billion operating expenditure and $855 million capital expenditure, which represents a significant increase to education funding.
It builds on previous Budgets to improve property, deliver pay parity in early learning and commit to fairer and more equitable funding structures that will make a long-term difference in schools and the tertiary sector.
This year’s investment will continue the progress made towards delivering a world-class public education system that is safe and inclusive for all those participating in it, and ensures ākonga are present, participating and progressing in their learning.
It also provides significant funding to drive forward key reforms and deliver against Government manifesto commitments, including: Supporting All Schools to Succeed, the Government’s response to the Independent Review of Tomorrow’s Schools, and the replacement of the decile system with the Equity Index.
Budget 2022 provides significant support for the success of ākonga Māori. There is investment across a range of areas critical for Māori education, with a specific boost for funding targeted towards the growth and development of te reo Māori, in line with the Government’s vision for revitalisation set out in Maihi Karauna.
Key initiatives for education include:
