Educator calls for end to funding inequality affecting First Nations students
Students in Saskatchewan receive free schooling, yet their education may not be valued equally.
The tuition for each student attending the Saskatchewan Rivers School Division is $10,549 a year, according to Donald Lloyd, the chief financial officer for the division.
Tuition is provincially funded for all students in Saskatchewan that attend public school.
However, students who live on a First Nation receive federal funding for their schooling.
