The Ministry of Education and Child Care will conduct a parent survey this November to better understand the regional and provincial demand for school-aged child care. Schools with Kindergarten to Grade 7 students will be asked to distribute the survey to parents to help inform long-term planning and policy development for child care in B.C. Principals and school administrators will be contacted in the coming weeks with further information, including survey distribution instructions. For questions, contact ChildCareBC.Engagement@gov.bc.ca.
