Excerpt: "Licensed school-age child care centres will be able to access new funding to help them deliver before and after school programming for Island children. To ensure Island families can continue to access affordable child care programming, the Province is investing $537,900 to support operational costs and encourage more organizations to offer school-age child care programs. The new funding will include a one-time stabilization grant for existing operators and a new licensing incentive grant for new operators."

Excerpt: "Alberta’s government and its education partners are continuing to modernize the education system and improve student success by developing and piloting a curriculum that will drive a passion for learning. The new draft K-6 social studies curriculum, which was developed after nine months of consultation with education partners, teachers, parents and Albertans, focuses on building students’ critical thinking skills and empowers them to be engaged citizens. Since the new draft K-6 social studies curriculum was released in April 2024, 62 school authorities and more than 1,700 teachers across 429 schools have signed up to pilot the curriculum during the 2024-25 school year."
