The Beyond the Line program is a program run by the Department of Education and Training in New South Wales. The program is designed to encourage new teachers to take the plunge in a rural and / or remote school.
For me, there is not a lot of choice. I am on a Beyond the Line scholarship, so I am destined to go teaching in a rural or remote school.
Adios!

All in all Rob it looks rather pastoral. I spent a good portion of my career in small towns after growing up in a big city. Once you get over the initial feeling of remotness it can be quite rewarding. Besides in this era of internet you are never too far away.
@ PJ...
Yes, rural and remote means something different to what it once did. Bingara had almost completed a program of placing interactive whiteboards into all of their classrooms from K-12 (it is a central school).
While I was there both staff and students were actively involved in video-conferencing and regional collaboration work.
So, yeah, one is never all that far away nowadays.
