How is SelfDesign funded?

SelfDesign Learning Foundation, the authority for the SelfDesign_® Learning Community, is funded through various streams including grants, donations and charitable gifts.

SelfDesign Learning Community is partially funded by the BC Ministry of Education and Child Care as a Group 1 Independent Online Learning School. This means we are funded at 63 per cent of the flat public school online learning per-student rate.

SelfDesign Learning Community also receives partial funding from the BC Ministry of Education and Child Care for learners with a special education designation. Funding is equivalent to 100 per cent of the public per student operating cost determined for the level of support required to provide the best possible education for the student. In other words, this funding is the same for all learners across the province.
