Different agency responsible
The Ministry of Education has information on the number of staff paid as teachers/principals in State and State integrated schools. THis information is available up to April 2012.
The Ministry does not hold data on Teacher Registrations. This process is undertaken by the NZ Teachers Council.
The New Zealand Teachers Council also responded to this data request:The Teachers Council is the regulatory profession body for teachers and holds information on the registration status of teachers. This information is publicly available on our website. The Teachers Council does not pay or directly employ teachers and does not hold workforce planning related data and therefore is not able to correlate registration information against teacher payroll and working pattern information. The Teachers Council is not informed of and therefore do not routinely record emigrations, or retirements and the Council is only informed of resignations when they meet the mandatory reporting requirements .
Furthermore teacher registration is an ever changing picture, as individuals registration or practising certificates expire or are renewed throughout the day as part of day to day business .
As previously indicated the Ministry of Education hold payroll related data and may hold workforce related data.
