Albertas New Pilot Program: Boosting Private School Classrooms

Alberta is launching a new pilot program, allocating $90 million over three years to help private schools expand classrooms. The focus is on creating up to 6,000 new student spaces, particularly for schools serving children with special needs. Schools can receive up to $10 million per grant, with established schools getting a 2:1 match and newer ones a 4:1 match. The first grant went to Renfrew Educational Services in Calgary for their Three Sisters Centre, serving children with disabilities. The province aims to address enrollment pressures from population growth and explore all options to keep up with surging independent school enrollment.
