WINNIPEG - The Progressive Conservative government plans to eliminate all but one of Manitoba s elected school boards, merge school divisions and set up a provincewide education authority.
Education Minister Cliff Cullen said Monday changes to kindergarten to Grade 12 schooling are aimed at cutting $40 million in administration costs and redirecting the money to the classroom. Our system has more (school board) trustees per capita than anywhere else in Canada. Our administration expenses as a percentage of costs are higher than most other provinces, Cullen said.
