Creating a Better Education System
Bob Lagassé, Author
Our PC government is committed to creating an education system that puts our students first.
We recently announced our Better Education Starts Today (BEST) strategy, a K-12 education system plan that will shift resources from top-heavy administration to the classroom. This plan streamlines the school system by unifying 37 school divisions into one Provincial Education Authority (the authority) while maintaining the French school division, Division Scolaire franco-manitobaine (DSFM). The authority will manage administrative services and 15 regions will be focused on addressing local needs. Parents will have more meaningful involvement in local decision-making through new School Community Councils.
