Regional Education Agreement
A two percent cap on funding increases for First Nations education has been in place since 1996. For this reason, the FNEC has been working tirelessly to develop a funding formula with the 22-member communities since 2007. These efforts have resulted in a formula that meets the needs of First Nations students, aims to improve their academic success, accounts for their cultural, linguistic, demographic, and geographic circumstances, and ensures equitable funding distribution among all member communities.
On June 22, 2020, Minister Marc Miller and the FNEC Chiefs Committee agreed that the FNEC funding formula would become the basis for the Regional education agreement.
On July 14, 2022, FNEC Grand Chiefs and Chiefs and the Honourable Patty Hajdu, Minister of Indigenous Services, met on the Mohawk Territory of Kahnawà:ke to sign an historical agreement: The Regional Education Agreement.
