Summary
This article provides information on the frequency of Gateway payments, how they are paid, and where payment schedules can be viewed.
It also contains information about the funding rates, and where to find the Gateway funding rate sliding scale.
Gateway payments
Gateway payments are made in equal monthly instalments throughout the year, up to the total annual amount confirmed in the funding confirmation letter loaded onto DXP Ngā Kete.
Payments will be made by direct credit into the school’s nominated school bank account.
The payment schedule can be viewed in the 'My Allocations and Payments' app in Ngā Kete.
Gateway funding rates
Gateway funding is allocated per place on a sliding scale. As the number of places at a school increases, the amount of funding per place decreases.
