School Licences: A School Licence is a multi-user subscription to a PLD resource, such as a book or program, in a digital and printable format that is accessible via the ‘My Subscription’ section of the PLD website. A School Licence is valid for 12 months from the date of purchase and can be used by an unlimited number of teachers within a school. When bought under a School Licence:

• Resources are accessible in digital, flipbook format, which teachers can access from anywhere, at any time, on any device via the PLD website.
• The resources can be used by any amount of teachers in that school.
• Multiple teachers can access the resources simultaneously.
• The resource is available to print, subject to the standard 10% per year limitation as per Australian Copyright law.
• Updated versions of resources will be automatically accessible to users with a current licence for free, ensuring all users have access to the latest versions of resources.
• Resources are stored centrally and accessed via a secure login account on the PLD website. Thus, all currently subscription resources are accessible in the one convenient place, making resources extremely easy to find. Moreso, the school licence offering eradicates the frustration of lost or misplaced resources and programs which happens often with hardback books.
