The gaming is wide spread. It is a poorly concealed secret that bands, managing competing priorities for spending, hold back a share of the grants ostensibly earmarked by INAC for education. Like all governments, bands dig out of deficit by cutting services across the board. Unlike other governments, bands do not have a tax base from which to draw revenues generally or for education specifically.
Block funding arrangements were intended to empower First Nations leaders, to encourage creative management of priorities. That has failed to materialize, generally, and has allowed the finger pointing to continue, discouraging real progress in the classrooms. Some Manitoba bands have Frontier School Division run their schools because they gain access to professional administration, and to high...

Money going into the system exceeds money spent because the province offered tax incentive grants to divisions willing to freeze their taxes. It increased education property tax credits, money which comes off property owners' tax bills without ever going into a classroom. And the government ordered school divisions to spend their surpluses down to two per cent of revenue -- in effect, spending "old" money in contingency reserve funds -- rather than raise taxes.
Opposition leader Hugh McFadyen said Wednesday that he has no problem with lower class sizes: "That is a good thing. It's a reflection of the decline in enrolment. As a parent, I think it's positive.

School divisions are hanging onto teachers, and they're reducing class sizes in Manitoba," Carolyn Duhamel, executive director of the Manitoba Association of School Trustees, said yesterday.
For instance, Manitoba spent more than any province in 2003-2004 on students from all sources -- $9,003 a head -- but that figure includes capital grants, payments to the teachers' pension fund, operation of the provincial education department and debt servicing on capital borrowing.
In another part of the report, Statistics Canada reports that teachers' remuneration makes up 53.3 per cent of Manitoba's public education costs, a percentage that is the fourth highest in Canada.

Our study shows that Sichuan Province has established a modern normal education system with its unique features, in which the courses offered continue to be optimized and practice teaching attracts increasing respect. However, the teaching of professional knowledge and general knowledge about education still cannot strike a balance. The teachers' qualification credentialing system guarantees professional development; the position appointment system has taken effect, but the personnel quota system needs more flexibility. Teachers' salary is on the small side. Schools, colleges, and universities differ greatly in teachers' welfare due to absence of a corresponding security system protecting teachers' rights and interests. Educational authorities on the whole have experienced growing aware...
