Educator ID Card

Home educating caregivers can get an Educator ID Card to use as evidence of homeschooling. Some providers require confirmation of homeschooling status for caregivers to access curriculum materials or discounts. For a Student ID card, please see here.

NCHENZ offers this service only for members educating children who have a current exemption certificate from the Ministry of Education.

Cards expire the 31st of the following March.

If you require your card within a specific timeframe please discuss this with the ID Cards Co-ordinator (email idcards@nchenz.org.nz). See additional fee under ‘Cost’ for express processing as well as the postage options for overnight courier delivery.

Photo

Please ensure photos:

• Show head and shoulders only
• Are in jpg format

• Have your name as the file name

Your card cannot be processed without a photo and your card will be delayed if you do not email the photo in a timely manner. Email the photo to idcards@nchenz.org.nz.

Cost

The fee for an Educator ID card is $12. Cards can be processed urgently for $21.00 per card.

The educator must be a member of NCHENZ. Membership to NCHENZ is free; go to our membership page to sign up.

You only need to pay the postage fee once if you are ordering more than one card. Please select your preferred postage option.

Payment

Payment can be by internet banking, or manual deposit of cheque or cash into the NCHENZ Kiwibank account at your nearest PostShop.

If you do not put your name as a reference on your payment then there will be a delay with your order.

Note, if you make a manual deposit then please add an additional $3 as this is what the bank charges NCHENZ.

Please complete this form for each card ordered and click SUBMIT each time.

ID cards take about a week to be processed once payment has been received and the details on the card have been checked and confirmed by yourself.

If you require a card urgently please email Maharookh at idcards@nchenz.org.nz to discuss.

ID cards will not be ordered in December or January while our volunteers have a break.
