EduPGC Is Now Available at No Cost for New Zealand Educators
Professional growth should support teachers, not add to their administrative workload.
That belief sits at the heart of EduPGC, a practical Professional Growth Cycle tool designed specifically for New Zealand schools and educators. Built in Google Sheets and aligned with the New Zealand Professional Standards, EduPGC is now available at no cost to educators and schools across Aotearoa.
Created by Inclusive Learning Solutions Ltd, EduPGC has been developed to make professional growth easier to manage, more meaningful, and better connected to everyday teaching practice.
What Is EduPGC?
EduPGC is a practical, school-friendly platform that brings all parts of the Professional Growth Cycle together in one organised workspace.
Instead of juggling multiple documents, folders, spreadsheets, or disconnected systems, educators can manage everything in one place, including:
Professional goals
Reflections
Evidence collection
Self-review
Progress tracking
Ongoing professional growth conversations
Designed for:
Teachers
SENCOs
HODs
School leaders
Kāhui Ako and support staff
EduPGC works within Google Workspace, making it accessible, familiar, and easy for schools to implement.
Built for Real Schools
One of the biggest challenges schools face is balancing meaningful professional growth with already demanding workloads.
Too often, appraisal and professional growth systems become:
Overly complicated
Time-consuming
Difficult to maintain
Focused on compliance instead of growth
EduPGC was designed differently.
It focuses on practical implementation and sustainable systems that work in real school environments.
The platform supports educators to:
✅ Set meaningful goals
✅ Reflect regularly and intentionally
✅ Organise evidence with ease
✅ Track growth over time
✅ Support collaborative professional conversations
✅ Reduce admin and duplication
The result is a streamlined approach that helps schools focus on what matters most — supporting teacher growth and improving outcomes for every ākonga.

EduPGC has been designed by New Zealand educators who understand the realities of our schools, classrooms, and professional expectations.
The tool aligns with the New Zealand Professional Standards and supports schools to create professional growth processes that are:
Flexible
Practical
Inclusive
Sustainable

Whether you are a beginning teacher, experienced kaiako, SENCO, or school leader, EduPGC provides a simple structure that supports continuous improvement without unnecessary complexity.

EduPGC is designed to help create those conditions.
By simplifying professional growth processes, schools can spend less time managing systems and more time supporting people.
