Manitoba's GSE: An Attempt at Resolving the Fiscal Equity Dilemma.

Pisichko, Ken

Alberta Journal of Educational Research, v39 n3 p335-46 Sep 1993

The Manitoba Government Support to Education (GSE) Program of public school funding was implemented in 1985 to enhance equity in Manitoba schools. Analysis of financial data from all 47 school divisions prior to and during the first 3 years of GSE implementation reveals that GSE reduced financial equity, particularly for rural school divisions.
