Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My questions are for the Minister of Education, Culture and Employment.
The Department of Education, Culture and Employment indicated that it will cost $1.8 million to implement the first year of Junior Kindergarten in 23 communities in 2014-2015. How much is being allocated to each education authority to deliver Junior Kindergarten in 2014-2015, excluding one-time or infrastructure funding? Please provide the following:
total amount for the 2014-2015 school year;
total amount for the period September 1, 2014, to March 31, 2015; and
total amount for the period April 1, 2015, to June 30, 2015.
In 2014-2015 how much funding will be deducted from each education authority to implement Junior Kindergarten, and how will these amounts be determined? Please include a breakdown of any reductions to education authorities if these reductions involve multiple sources; for example, PTR adjustments or inclusive schooling adjustments.
In 2015-2016 how much funding will be deducted from each education authority to implement Junior Kindergarten, and how will these amounts be determined? Please include a breakdown of any reductions to education authorities if these reductions involve multiple sources; for example, PTR adjustments and inclusive schooling adjustments.
In 2015-2016 what amount of funding will be provided to each education authority to implement Junior Kindergarten, excluding one-time or infrastructure funding?
Thank you, Ms. Bisaro. Mr. Bromley.
