The EQI shift and impact on other initiatives

The changes to the Isolation Index and phasing out of deciles will have an impact on a number of Ministry initiatives.

The following resources will consider the EQI in 2023:

• Targeted- At-Risk Grant (TARG) and Targeted Funding for Educational Achievement (TFEA) will be disestablished and replaced by a new operational funding component - Equity funding 
• The Careers information grant (GIG)
• Support for Inclusion Funding (SIF)
• The Donations scheme
• Ka Ora, Ka Ako | Healthy School lunches

Targeted funding for Isolation will be updated to reflect the Isolation Index changes.

We expect to be able to provide an update on other programmes that currently use decile before the end of the year.
