Frequently Asked Questions

Are all 4CTL sessions whole days?

4CTL offer sessions of all lengths, with a pricing structure that accommodates up-to-3hours, and then 3hours-to-whole-day. In some circumstances, 1 hr sessions may be made available.

Are there limits to the number of participants in a session?

Ideal participant numbers are dependent on the type of session, but generally groups of 5-10 teachers are ideal. However, we do offer SDD sessions for all staff, 1:1 or small group reflective practice or coaching sessions and all school twilight sessions which can include students and parents. 

Are there other costs besides the cost of the session?

We charge a travel fee for schools outside of reasonable drivable distance from Sydney. We calculate this fee using actual costs as close as possible.

We sell optional items (books, posters, mats, etc) at close-to-cost, but these are not essential or mandatory purchases.

Does 4CTL have cancellation fees?

If sessions are cancelled within less than 2 weeks of their scheduled date, we reserve the right to charge a cancellation fee of 30% of the cost of the cancelled session, and this will be determined on a case by case basis. Further, costs incurred from cancelled travel/accommodation will be charged in full.

Are your fees in AUD?

Yes.
Our business is registered in Australia for tax purposes, so all our fees are charged in Australian dollars and will incur a Goods and Services Tax (GST) of 10%. For schools and clients in other countries, we will calculate your fee in Australian dollars and issue you an invoice that converts that into your currency.

Who created this methodology?

The 4C approach to school transformation and learning was developed by our founders Dr. Miranda Jefferson and Professor Michael Anderson. While the idea of the 4Cs has existed in the educational lexicon for many years, our methodology has been developed in partnership with schools - meaning it’s informed by both the theory and the real-life practice of the 4Cs principles.
