Tories boost special ed funding: spokesperson

A change in how special education funding is allocated will benefit all school boards in the province, an Ontario Ministry of Education spokesperson says.Special incidence funding, for students with high needs, stood at $27,000 per student before the previous Liberal government announced last March the amount would climb to $38,000 for the 2018-2019 fiscal year. Last August, the new Progressive Conservative government told boards the special incidence funding would increase, but only to $27,405
