Homeland Learning Centre (HLC)

If a student is attending an HLC, use specific coding to identify:

  • the HLC the student attends, and
  • the nearest appropriate state school

On the Education Course Details (EDC) screen:

  • Institution: key the HLC, see Table 2
  • Comments: key the name of the HLC the student is attending

On the EIC Isolation Details (EIID) screen:

  • Nearest Approp Govt school: key the Hub school. This is considered the nearest appropriate state school
  • Distances: key '56' (km) for HLC students. This is used to distinguish HLC students because students attending an HLC are considered isolated

Example:

Arlparra School (Utopia)

Hub school code is 86040

HLCs are all coded as 83934:

  • Apungalindum
  • Clinic
  • Irrultja
  • Iyngiynyala (Soapy Bore)

If the student is attending Irrultja HLC (outstation), that is administered by and attached to Arlparra (Hub) School, code the following:

  • EDC screen:
    • Institution: 83934 (HLC)
    • Comments: Irrultja HLC
  • EIID screen:
    • Nearest Approp Govt school: 86040 (Hub)
    • Distance from Home to the Nearest Approp Govt School: 56
    • Distance from Home to School Attended: 56

Gap in entitlement

Arek was enrolled with QLD Home Education Unit (HEU) in Term 1 and 2. Arek withdrew from QLD HEU and commenced with a distance education provider in Term 3.

Term 2 end date: 27 June

Term 3 start date: 14 July

Scenario 1:

Arek withdrew with from QLD HEU on 27 June and was enrolled with the distance education provider on 14 July.

As Arek:

  • withdrew at the end of the term, the entitlement end date is the end of the instalment period 30 June
  • commenced within 14 days of Term 3, the entitlement start date is the beginning of the instalment period 1 July

As there is no gap between these 2 dates, there is no gap in entitlement.

Scenario 2:

Arek withdrew from QLD HEU on 25 June and was enrolled with the distance education provider on 14 July.

As Arek:

  • withdrew before the term end date, the entitlement end date is 25 June
  • commenced within 14 days of Term 3, the entitlement start date is the beginning of the instalment period 1 July

As the end and start date do not align, there is a gap in entitlement.
