The Bridging the Digital Divide team is in the process of finalising school contribution calculations and principals of eligible schools will be advised of their individual contribution before the start of Term 3.
This communication will include a detailed breakdown of each school’s contribution calculation using the data entered into the Department’s IT Asset Management system.
Following the confirmation being sent, the contributions will be distributed as a once-off cash payment via the Student Resource Package. The payments will be electronically transferred directly into the school bank account.
In the interim, if you wish to confirm the contribution amount or have any questions or require assistance regarding this initiative please contact the Department at
learning.from.home.technology@education.vic.gov.au.
The Information Management & Technology Division (IMTD) have a small reserve of devices, both computers and Wi-Fi Internet access points, for any schools that have families that have missed out from last year’s arrangements and really need some support to engage in remote
learning. Any schools that need support should email the team at learning.from.home.technology@education.vic.gov.au
