Summary of Proposal:
The Core Education Funding (Core Ed) regulation determines the funding allocation for publicly-funded school boards (72 district school boards and 10 school authorities) in Ontario. The Calculation of Fees for Pupils fegulation specifies the tuition fee amounts that may be charged by publicly-funded school boards for the school year.
These regulations are made annually in accordance with the Education Act. The new regulations and amendments to related regulations are required to flow funding to school boards for the 2024-25 school year and establish accountability requirements. Amendments were also made to previous years' regulations in order to reflect updated information (e.g., enrolment and staffing) provided to the ministry by school boards as well as other technical adjustments.
