I going to provide information on how the BC Ministry of Education designates funding for students with disabilities. The Ministry brakes down the disorders/disabilities into three categories they are as follows.
Level 1: dependent Handicapped (A)
Deafblind (B)
Level 2: moderate to profound intellectual disabled (C)
Physically disabled, Chronic Health Impaired (D)
Visually Impaired (E)
Deaf/ Hearing Impaired (F)
Autism Spectrum Disorder (G)
Level 3: Intensive Behaviour Interventions and Serious Mental Health Illness
Based on which level the students are placed in, determines how much funding the school receives in order to provide the assistance so that the student can be successful in school.
The amount of funding for each level:
Level 1 "students will be funded at $32,000 per full time equivalent (FTE)"
Level 2" students will be funded at $16,000 FTE"
Level 3 "students will be funded at $8,000 EFT"
