Province is on Target

 

Re "Premier needs to find his target" (Editorial, Nov. 30): Since taking office, we have worked closely with our education partners to make meaningful changes to the funding formula every single year. Over the past four years, we have invested an additional $3.7 billion that allowed us to close the teacher salary gap, introduce new grants and target other items boards have told us about. We know one size doesn’t fit all. We’ve addressed needs that are more specific to urban areas with support such as additional ESL funding. We’ve also moved away from strictly per-pupil funding, and in doing so, we’ve provided boards with much more flexibility, as they have requested. And while we’ve been making improvements to the formula every year, we’re also going to do an evaluation of the changes made to the funding formula by 2010. We will continue to make improvements to ensure that Ontario students reach their full potential.



Kathleen Wynne


Minister of Education
