 The ACEP Team, working in partnership with Tamara Downey from DEECD, works with teachers from across Victoria to support teachers with their Professional Leave Project related to the e5 Instructional Model. ACEP has been delivering the PLATO program for 3 years. We provide a 4 Day program starting in November and continuing in March, May and August.
The PLATO program addresses the needs of participants in framing an inquiry question around the e5 Instructional Model. ACEP offers opportunities for individual and team coaching around aspects of project management and action research related to projects.
