The BC Tripartite Education Agreement: Supporting First Nation Student Success (“BCTEA”) between the Province of British Columbia (BC), the First Nations Education Steering Committee (“FNESC”), and Canada (collectively the “Parties”) sets the foundation for further growth and changes to support the enhancement of the BC First Nations education system. As a component of BCTEA, the Parties agreed to establish a First Nation Student Transportation Fund (“Fund”) to address the transportation needs of First Nation Students who live on-reserve and attend BC Public Schools, as described in BCTEA - Schedule G: Transportation for First Nations Students Attending BC Public Schools.
