Ontario school boards' capital funding eligibility list updated to January 2026 version

Plain-language summary · AI-assisted · not legal advice

The regulation now references a January 31, 2026 version of the eligibility list that determines which school board capital projects qualify for funding under the Capital Priorities, Land Priorities, Child Care Capital, and EarlyON Child and Family Centres Capital programs. Previously, the regulation pointed to the June 30, 2025 version of that list. This updated reference applies across all four funding streams — school construction, land purchases, child care capital, and EarlyON centres — and affects how funding caps are calculated for each approved project. School boards with active or pending capital projects should confirm their project details against the updated January 2026 list to ensure their reported costs align with the amounts now specified for funding eligibility.
