<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">Exceptional opportunities are available for teachers, coaches and members of the Principal class to develop specialist knowledge in either literacy or numeracy through the
provision of Bastow Institute substantially sponsored places at the University of Melbourne.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">The Department has met most of the cost of the courses. Participants pay $6000 in 4 instalments over the two years. Fee-help is also available. Additional support of 10 CRT
days is provided to school based participants.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

combines whole day intensives with an online delivery.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
