Mahsi, Madam Speaker. This is an area that we are embarking on, a new initiative. We’ve been talking about this junior kindergarten since the Aboriginal Student Achievement a few years back now, and it’s based on the engagement process that we’ve heard from the parents, the Aboriginal leadership, the community leadership, and the past and present MLAs that were part of the process. These are the discussions that we’ve been having for quite some time now.

It’s before us through the Early Childhood Development Framework. The action plan will be a tabled document today. It does capture an area that junior kindergarten is part of that action plan.

Through the budget process there’s been an earmark of funding allocated to that, new money, and there’s also re-profiling, as the Member alluded to. The re-profiling, we’ve been discussing that with the school boards, the school board superintendents, and we’ve had their feedback, and so those are discussions that we’ve been having.

We are rolling out the program this fall, 2014, and capturing the small communities, 29 communities at the get-go and then phasing it in over three years. That is the overall plan to cover all communities throughout the Northwest Territories. That is the overall plan. These are some of the priorities of this Legislative Assembly’s goals and objectives, so we are moving forward. Mahsi.
