The Distance Education Centre moved from Havelock Street, West Perth to Oxford Street, Leederville, the site of the Leederville Primary School and WestEd Media. There was to be a redevelopment of this site with purpose built facilities that integrated with the historic buildings of Leederville Primary School and the modern buildings that housed WestEd Media. These buildings were to cater better for the services needed by rural and isolated students.
At this time about 150 teachers were providing distance education to approximately 2000 students across Australia and in 42 other countries.
