The Barkly Group

Funded May 2003

"Funding to schools is limited so access to new material is often challenging."

The program
The Group is composed of 12 member schools, ranging from one-teacher schools to five-teacher schools. A walk around the playground is 3000 kilometres. Most schools are almost entirely comprised of Indigenous students. Not surprisingly, Indigenous material is keenly sought as it is deemed to be more relevant to the students learning environment.
The results
The Dymocks Literacy Foundation is proud to have enabled assessment of Indij Readers as well as funding to ensure both the Indij Readers and Indij Teachers Guide can be used throughout the Barkly Group schools.
