Our Story
TransformUs began with a research trial in 20 primary schools in Melbourne, Australia.
16 years later TransformUs continues to grow and is now available for secondary school students, students with additional needs and pre-service teachers studying at university.
The project has won multiple awards and the TransformUs team would like to thank everyone who has contributed to the journey so far and we look forward to many more highlights in the future.
