Variation of SES score determinations

  (1)   If the Minister approves the proposal, the Minister must vary the school's SES score determination under section   75 to determine a new SES score for the school.

Note:   The Minister must give notice of the determination to the approved authority of the school (see section   82).

Program year of effect

  (2)   A variation under this section must be stated to apply for the program year in which the variation is made, if the variation results in the school's funding level being equal to, or exceeding, the funding level that applied to the school at the time the proposal to vary the SES score was made.

Note:   A variation that decreases a school's SES score may have the effect of increasing the school's funding level.

  (3)   A variation under this section must be stated to apply for the program year immediately following the program year in which the variation is made, if the variation results in the school's funding level being less than the funding level that applied to the school at the time the proposal to vary the SES score was made.
