Example: The member's child’s school transport costs for the year was AUD 500.00, after converting the costs from local currency using the exchange rate provided.
The child used school transport to travel to and from school on 140 days between 1 March and 28 February.

500 – ((140 ÷ 157) x 403.20)
The member may be reimbursed AUD 140.46.
There is no limit on the number of times a member may seek reimbursement in a year commencing 1 March once their child’s school transport costs exceed the threshold amount under paragraph 15.3.12.1.b.

15.6.14 Remedial tuition
The education assistance under this section is designed to address the student’s immediate academic difficulties associated with the disruption caused by the transition to the overseas posting location. It is limited and only intended to assist students in achieving a satisfactory level of academic performance, not to enhance the student’s grades or to cover intensive pre‑examination tutoring. As such, if the student continues to experience academic difficulties despite the remedial tuition hours already provided, any further costs would be the member’s responsibility.
