In the announcement, two main principles were entpha sized: (1) that the lncreaeed grants are to be the means of lowering tate burden of taxation for school' purposes on real property. (2) that they are to enable every community to provide ter every Ontario child as nearly equal an educational oppor- tunity as possible, The -former system was compli- cated by assisted grants, grants for special subjects and detailed eaicu. lotions on attendance, salaries, and improvements, This scheme is the simplest which has been us in Ontario. All rural school boards will re• ceive in 1945 an amount equal to 50% or more of the school operation costs for the calendar year 1944. The .assessment of rural sections is used as a basis for determining the percentage of grants payable. In some cases where the assessment is very low, the grant will be as much as 90%. In I-Iuron County, all rural school boards will receive 50% of their approved costs. For urban centres the grants to public and :separate school boards vary according to the population of the urban centre, and are a per- centage of the preceeding calendar year's school operation costs. This percentage begins at 30 for the largest urban centres and goes as high -as 60 for the smallest urban centres Fewer than 150 urban centres will receive less than 50','•; of their 1944 operating costs. In each urban centre the percentage of school operation— costs paid eo the Deistic school board and to the separate school board 1s the same. To Huron County, the town of Goderich will receive 50% of the approved cost of public and separ:,te schools, all outer towns and villages will receive 60%. The grant scheme continues the encouragement of .the formation of larger units for 10101 school administration. The townships or Portions of townships of this County which have adopted the township school area board will continue to receive a grant of one mill on the equalized assessment to a maximum a'•nual grant of $000 per section included in the Area,. The grants to secondary schools have been greatly increased. This a:; well as being a saving to the urbancentres, will lower the cost for county pupils since high school boards are required to deduct all legislative grants from their gross costs in determining the net cost to he paid by the county and township councils in behalf of their county pupils attending high schools. Assisted grants will not be re' quired after the new grant scheme goes into operation and fewer special parts' tuward the teaching of special subjects will be necessary. Every school board will be expected to provide a full programme of studies with both obligatory and optional subjec's included and with ample equipment for use by teaoher and -pupils. The new scheme will snake um t:eceseary the grant on ae00ntma dation and equipment shared equally 1,y the government and the minty. Thio school boards will be corm pensaterl through the new grant which covers 50% or mo.e of school operation costs This may apply also to transportation costs ;lied fifth classes. The new grams will be paid by cheque directly from the Provincial Treasury to bite local secretary, treasurer of each school board. Since ail expenditures are subject to approval before grants can he assured. there should he the 'loseet undersl:,nding and cooperation 1,el\vee11 MO school board and the inspector.
