My kids were contacting DLTV since October last year – because November was the application cut-off date. Nothing happened! I got a lame email from them blaming the government for delays. Why ADVERTISE a program you don’t have to offer??<o:p></o:p></span></p>

did. I don’t see the point any more. The conferences for new curriculum at the end of the year will probably be my last involvement. I get more support from the edulists!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
