The Learning Communities Online Handbook was commissioned by the MoE in 2002 and a follow up was drafted in 2004. The handbook is an active document and it was updated in 2005.

• Read the LCO Handbook (web format). (Note: The section that covers 'How is Teaching Done?' has a 6 MB movie (large) so if you are on a dial up, it is not advisable to open this page.)
• Read the LCO Handbook in PDF format [201 KB, v.5]

If you'd like more information or advice on the LCO Handbook, cluster development or distance education provision by cluster schools, please contact CAM (Chris Allott McPhee):
