Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk<\/figcaption><\/figure>April 22, 2015 <\/strong><\/p>\n

Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk has announced extra funding for Queensland\u2019s Schools of Distance Education to help relieve the financial pressures faced by drought-affected families.<\/p>\n

Ms Palaszczuk said up to $250,000 in extra funding would be distributed this year through the Rural and Remote Education Access Program.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe know there are many Queensland families out there doing it really tough because of the drought,\u201d Ms Palaszczuk said.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd that includes many families with children enrolled in one of Queensland\u2019s seven state Schools of Distance Education.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis extra funding will help these schools reduce the extra costs to families of participating in school activities such as residential camps and mini-schools.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThese face-to-face activities are an important part of the distance education curriculum and they help to maximise learning outcomes for students.”<\/p>\n

Education Minister Kate Jones said the funding would be allocated next month to support programs across Terms 2 and 3, when most of the face-to-face programs occur.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis extra funding doubles the amount previously available to Schools of Distance Education through RREAP and schools will work with their communities to determine how best to use it,\u201d Ms Jones said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI would like to thank the distance education principals for raising this issue with me and with the department so we were able to take action and offer extra support.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
