<p>It has been more than a year since the Prime Minister announced that the Government was intending to spend millions of dollars creating new roles for teachers and principals.</p>
<p>NZEI President Louise Green says to date less than 10 per cent of schools have taken the first step towards signing up to the scheme.</p>
<p>&#8220;This clearly shows that teachers and principals do not believe in the IES top-down managerial approach or that creating new, highly paid roles for some will benefit children&#8217;s learning. That&#8217;s why the majority continue to reject the IES.&#8221;</p></p>
