Wages and Salaries Survey

More information

The Early Childhood Council (ECC) is committed to promoting high quality ECE in New Zealand. This begins with ensuring all our staff are being paid fairly and reasonable for the important work they do. Part of our approach is our annual survey which is sent out to Education and Care services, this excludes Kindergartens, Kōhanga Reo, Playcentre and home based centres.

Purpose of the Survey

The survey has been designed to help us better understand how ECE staff are being paid and to better help employers and employees understand which wages are fair and reasonable. The survey will compare the different wages and salaries of our ECE staff across different roles, based on region, qualifications and experience. It has been designed to provide a comprehensive outlook on how centres compare to others.
