Part 6 Exemptions Special reason The Secretary may exempt a board, in respect of a school it administers, from the limitations imposed by this order if there is a special reason for an exemption for the school, being a reason that applies only to the school or to some other schools, but not being a reason that applies to all other schools.
Schools subject to interventions If the Minister or the Secretary has applied any of the interven- tions described in Part 7A of the Act to a school, the Secretary may exempt the board or any commissioner of the school from any or all of the limitations imposed by this order, and may im- pose conditions on any exemption, if the Secretary is satisfied that the exemption and any conditions are necessary in the cir- cumstances.
Board-funded teachers The Secretary may exempt a board, in respect of a school it administers, from the limitations imposed by this order if the Minister has given consent to the board under section 91F(b) of the Act.
65 66 67 68 69 42 2013/314 Education (2014 School Staffing) Order 2013 Part 6 cl 72 70 Overriding of clause 14(1) and (2) for supernumerary teachers after notice of provisional rolls (1) A board may continue to employ any permanently appointed regular teacher who, following receipt of the Secretary’s notice of the school’s provisional rolls, has become supernumerary.

This clause overrides clause 14(1) and (2).
(2) 71 Overriding of clause 14(1) and (2) based on employment over all 2014 school year (1) A board may employ more permanently appointed regular teachers than is permitted under clause 14(1), and may employ more other regular teachers than is permitted under clause 14(2), if,— (a) (b) (c) at some other time during the 2014 school year, the board has employed, or will employ, fewer regular teachers than the prescribed number; and the employment of those teachers does not, at any time, cause the number of regular teachers employed by the board at the school to exceed by more than 10% the number of FTTEs that the board is entitled to employ at the school under clause 14(1) or (2); and the net effect during the 2014 school year of employing the additional teachers does not result in the school’s board employing regular teachers representing a greater number of FTTEs than it is entitled to employ over that school year.
(2) This clause overrides clause 14(1) and (2).

72 (1) (2) (3) Suspension of clause 71 if 10% limit exceeded The Secretary may notify a board, in writing, that clause 71 does not apply to it if the circumstances in subclause (2) exist.

The circumstances are that, contrary to clause 71, the board employs a regular teacher whose employment causes the num- ber of regular teachers employed at the school to exceed by more than 10% the number of FTTEs that the board is entitled to employ at the school.
Clause 71 does not apply to a board that receives a notice under subclause (1) from the date of receipt of the notice until the 43 Part 6 cl 73 Education (2014 School Staffing) Order 2013 2013/314 date on which the notice ceases to apply in accordance with subclause (4).
(4) A notice under subclause (1) applies from the date on which it is received by the board until the date on which the number of regular teachers employed by the board at the school during the year up to that date equals the number of FTTEs that the board was entitled to employ at the school under clause 14(1) or (2) during that period.
Exemption for surplus to carry over until 31 March 2014 If the circumstances in subclause (2) exist, a board is exempted until 31 March 2014 from the limitations imposed by clause 14 in respect of any surplus as if the exemption were an exemp- tion calculated under clause 71.
The circumstances are that the board employed fewer regular teachers at the school during the 2013 school year than equated to the number of FTTEs that the board was entitled to employ under a provision set out in clause 13 of the Education (2013 School Staffing) Order 2012.
In this clause, surplus means a positive number that is ob- tained by subtracting the number of FTTEs that the board em- ployed at a school during the 2013 school year from the num- ber it was entitled to employ at the school under clause 13 of the Education (2013 School Staffing) Order 2012.
Roll increases The Secretary may exempt a board, in respect of a school it ad- ministers, from the limitations imposed by this order if there has been an unusual increase in the number of students en- rolled at the school.
Time allowance for teachers on long-term training The Secretary may exempt a board, in respect of a school it administers, from the limitations imposed by this order if the Secretary considers that the school needs a long-term training course allowance of up to 1 FTTE for each teacher absent on a long-term training course.
73 (1) (2) (3) 74 75 44 2013/314 Education (2014 School Staffing) Order 2013 Part 6 cl 77 76 (1) (2) 77 Resource teachers The Secretary may exempt a board, in respect of a school it administers, from the limitations imposed by this order in 1 or more of the following circumstances: (a) students enrolled at the school or at other schools have particular educational needs that can and should be met by the employment of 1 or more resource teachers: learning and behaviour: students enrolled at the school have particular educa- tional needs that can and should be met by the employ- ment of 1 or more resource teachers: literacy or re- source teachers: literacy (Māori): students enrolled at the school have particular educa- tional needs that can and should be met by the employ- ment of 1 or more resource teachers: Māori.
(b) (c) The maximum number of FTTEs in respect of which the Sec- retary may grant an exemption under subclause (1) (on a na- tional basis and across all State schools of any type) is,— (a) in respect of resource teachers: learning and behaviour, the number obtained by dividing the total number of year 1 to year 10 students enrolled at state schools by 633: in respect of resource teacher managers: learning and behaviour, 40: in respect of resource teachers: literacy (which includes resource teachers: literacy (Māori)), 121: in respect of resource teachers: Māori, 53.
(b) (c) (d) Protection of supernumerary teachers The Secretary may exempt a board, in respect of a school it administers, from the limitations imposed by this order, if the exemption is necessary to preserve the continued employment of any permanently appointed regular teacher employed by the board immediately before 1 January 2014 who is for the time being supernumerary, having been declared surplus by virtue of amalgamation, merger, change of status, closure, or a fall in the roll of the school.
45 Part 6 cl 78 Education (2014 School Staffing) Order 2013 2013/314 78 (1) (2) 79 Reading recovery in primary and area schools The Secretary may exempt the board of a primary school or an area school, in respect of a school it administers, from the limitations imposed by this order if 1 or more of the following circumstances exist: (a) the school participates in the training of reading recov- ery teachers: because of the size or location of the school, the students of the school need to have a reading recovery teacher based at the school: the school provides a base from which its reading recov- ery teacher can serve both that school and other schools in the area.
(b) (c) The maximum number of FTTEs in respect of which an ex- emption under subclause (1) may be granted (on a national basis and across all primary and area schools) is 271.
Normal and model schools The Secretary may exempt a board, in respect of a normal or model school it administers, from the limitations imposed by this order to ensure that the school is able— (a) to recruit and retain sufficient skilled and experienced teachers to carry out the special functions of normal and model schools; and to carry out the extra work required by the performance of those functions.
(b) 80 Maintenance of specified programmes in high schools and area schools The Secretary may exempt a board, in respect of a high school or an area school it administers, from the limitations imposed by this order if the Secretary believes that— (a) the school’s staffing has been (or, but for the exemption, would be) affected by a fall in its roll; and it is desirable to grant an exemption (sufficient to re- store the school’s staffing to its 2013 level or some lower level) in order to maintain a specified programme of instruction, the continued provision of which would otherwise be at risk.
(b) 46 2013/314 Education (2014 School Staffing) Order 2013 Part 7 cl 84 81 82 (1) (2) 83 Protection of associate principals in high schools The Secretary may exempt a board, in respect of a high school it administers, from the limitations imposed by this order if the Secretary believes that— (a) the school’s entitlement to an associate principal has been (or, but for the exemption, would be) affected by a reorganisation, change in attendance, closure, amal- gamation, or change in class of the school; and it is desirable to exempt the board from the limitation in order to preserve the position.
(b) Deaf and hearing-impaired students The Secretary may exempt the boards of Kelston Deaf Edu- cation Centre and van Asch Deaf Education Centre from the limitations imposed by this order if the students at those schools have particular educational needs that can and should be met by the employment of not more than 107.5 resource teachers: hearing.
From the number of resource teachers: hearing identified in subclause (1), the Secretary must determine the number of those teachers to be allocated to each of Kelston Deaf Edu- cation Centre and van Asch Deaf Education Centre.

Blind and vision-impaired students The Secretary may exempt the board of BLENNZ from the limitations imposed by this order if the students at the school have particular educational needs that can and should be met by the employment of not more than 50 resource teachers: vi- sion.
