Final Report ( 1.40 MB)
This report focuses on the initiatives schools have undertaken to support their rural schools and to address the challenges they face. In addition, the report offers a survey of initiatives that have been undertaken by Ministries of Education across Canada, with a specific focus on detailing those initiatives that either are directly targeted to rural schools, or have benefited them in the areas of Teaching and Learning, Infrastructure, Educational Finance, and Inter-jurisdictional Collaboration. It is the intent that this review of rural education initiatives will help foster planning for rural education across the province that produces viable alternatives in practice and policy for rural education.
