Aboriginal education

Both the federal and provincial governments have some responsibility for the education of Aboriginal students. Students who attend school on reserves are part of the federally-funded education system, while those students attending school off-reserve attend provincially funded schools. In this section, you can find more information about Aboriginal education in Ontario.
