Approved Online Learning Tool for the NSW Department of Education

Chosen twice as a finalist by Educational Publishing Awards Australia, REDeLEARN has now been officially selected by the NSW Department of Education as one of the approved Online Learning Tools for use in NSW Public Schools. We have all been working feverishly over the past months and are very excited at having this wonderful opportunity to make our work available for all public school students in classrooms across the State.

Schools can now locate REDeLEARN as a featured product in the Online Learning Tools Panel on the Department's new electronic catalogue, EdBuy. Inclusion in this catalogue only occurs after a very rigorous evaluation by the Department. Because of this, schools can be assured that REDeLEARN is a perfect and digitally safe addition to any primary school's online resources for their students and teachers.
