			BSDE has recently moved into a purpose-built, Aus $30million, new facility - a brand new school comprising both junior and secondary schools with playgrounds and classrooms, family rooms and a library. What differentiates BSDE from traditional schools is the large ‘distribution centre’ which is required to manage the substantial amount of materials provided to support learners and their families.

			The general requirement for enrolment in the Brisbane School of Distance Education is that the student seeking enrolment is a resident of Queensland with a Queensland address.

	Most students study almost fully online but they, and family members, also attend the school at least once a term or attend workshops and activities held in Queensland regional centres. Parents are encouraged to become ‘home educators’ and are offered support to achieve a recognised vocational qualification as such. In common with other Australian states Queensland has a system of rotating staff around its schools and all teachers are appointed to schools by the state - so there is no ‘cherry-picking’ of staff by the school. BSDE has had to prioritise staff development and is now recognised for its expertise in this area.
