About the Incredible Years Teacher Classroom Management Programme
- The Incredible Years Teacher Classroom Management Programme (IYT) is part of the Ministry of Education PB4L initiative and is designed primarily for teachers of students from NE-Y4 (5-8yrs).
- The IYT course is intended to equip teachers with strategies to reduce challenging behaviours in children and to increase their students' social and self-management skills.
- IYT is available for all schools in the cluster, including those in Rumaki Immersion, Wharekura, Kura and Kohanga Reo settings.
- Delivery of the course is available in both English and Te Reo Maori.
- Ideally you should have a minimum of two teachers enrolled from your school for the programme to be most effective.

Time commitment:
Six one day sessions held over six months. Between each session you will be able practice what you have learnt and get feedback from the Group Leader. Three months after you have completed the programme there is another half day workshop.
Financial supports/cost:
MOE will pay your school a teacher reliever fee of $1000 for each teacher so you can be released to complete the six month programme. Your school would need to fund the follow-up half day workshop
Other resources including course text book, handouts and catering will be provided free of charge.
