Do Public Schools Get Enough Government Funding?
QPEC is organising a public meeting to discuss school funding.
There is a passionate consensus across education on the need for substantial increases in school operations grant funding in the 2005 budget. The budget is to be announced in May but to influence the big decisions we need to act now.
