Education Minister Stephen Lecce made the announcement Thursday afternoon, just hours after the Education Quality and Accountability Office posted details of last spring’s testing of students, which found 59 per cent of Grades 3 students met the provincial standard in math — equivalent to an A or B — while just 47 per cent of Grade 6 students did. Lecce also provided details of the province’s payout to parents, a $365-million fund that will provide $200 per child up to age 18, and $250 for those with special needs up to age 21. The money is to cover private tutoring or supplies for their children — although parents aren’t expected to submit any proof of how it is spent — and applications are now being accepted online.
