Reporting on Smaller Class Sizes Initiative (K-8 Schools)
Earlier this year, Manitoba Education & Early Childhood Learning launched the Smaller Class Sizes Initiative, aimed at decreasing class sizes for our youngest students. This effort ensures that a greater number of K-3 learners receive improved support from their classroom educators.
“The 2024/25 school year funding increase also includes $3 million for the smaller class size initiative. This funding will be allocated to facilitate improved one-on-one support for K-3 students.”
The following report provides a clear overview of how class sizes vary across our schools, allowing us to better understand the impact of the Smaller Class Sizes Initiative. By examining these figures, we can identify trends and areas where further improvements might be needed to optimize learning environments for students. This data-driven approach ensures that we continue to prioritize quality education, fostering an environment where every student has the opportunity to thrive.
