Examples of First Nation Student in a sentence
Under BCTEA, there is a portion of the First Nation Student Rate (FNSR) derived from the Student Location Factor (SLF), Supplementary Student Location Factor1 (SSLF) and Provincial Student Transportation Fund (STF) that is considered a “proxy” for funding First Nation Student transportation.
Transportation “Proxy” Introduced in the 2021/22 Joint Transportation Plan Worksheet was the request for Boards to include their baseline spending on First Nation Student transportation from their available funding sources e.g., Provincial General Operating Grant budget, including the First Nation Student Rate (FNSR), and the Provincial Student Transportation Fund (STF).
Reporting requirements include: • 2023/24 Amended budget for all First Nation Student Transportation as of February 29, 2024 to June 30, 2024; • Spending of the First Nation Student Transportation Proxy; • Spending of the approved funding values for transportation “to/from” school, “shelters” and “extracurricular”; and • Qualitative information regarding how the “to/from school” funding allocation assisted in reducing travel times and extending services to First Nations.
This proxy amount can be supplemented by other funding from the FNSR and/or from 1 These factors were used by BCTEA as a formula to determine per First Nation Student spending and doesn’t mean the student has to meet the Supplementary Student Location Factor criteria.
