Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister of Education, Culture and Employment.
- How much money, on a year-by-year basis, has been allocated for special needs funding for the last five years for the NWT as a whole?
- What is the breakdown each DEA/DEC received for this funding for special needs over the same time period on a yearly basis?
- What are the criteria set out to determine how students with special needs qualify for special needs support?
- What is the process used to determine who among our student population have special needs and require additional support?
- Please provide all ministerial directives issued in this regard.
- What is the number of students who require special needs support in our school system at the current time?
Thank you, Mr. Speaker.
