The LSC allocation for 2026 will be updated in Pourato by Monday 20 October.
Eligible schools will see their allocation under 'Staffing > Staffing Entitlement'.
What in-school LSCs do#
LSCs are experienced, registered teachers with a current full practising certificate. They:
- support students to get the right help earlier
- better support teachers to meet diverse learning needs
- make it easier for families to understand and access learning support at school.
Which schools are eligible for in-school LSCs#
The new LSC staffing entitlement is for schools and kura with learners in Years 1 to 8 that do not currently have access to an LSC.
Schools that access LSCs as part of a cluster will continue to do that.
The document below sets out how access to in-school LSCs will be rolled out.
