Factors and Themes in Native Education and School Boards/First Nations Tuition Negotiations and Tuition Agreement Schooling.
Burns, George E.
Canadian Journal of Native Education, v22 n1 p53-66 1998
Traces development since the 1950s of the tuition agreement approach, in which Canadian provincial school boards negotiate costs and conditions of First Nations schooling with (initially) the federal Indian agency or (now) First Nations bands themselves. Recommends strategies supporting Native control of tuition negotiations as a means of intervening in neocolonialist practices of provincial school systems. Contains 35 references. (SV)
