Quick Facts

The government spent $4.663 billion on education in 2010/2011, of which 258 million was allocated to fund independent school operating costs.
While educating 11% of all students enrolled in BC elementary and secondary schools, independent schools receive only 5% of grants the provincial budget allocates toward operating costs of schools. The maximum grant to an independent school is 1/2 the per pupil grant to a public school.
