Report gives B.C. failing grade on Native education


The British Columbia school system was given a failing grade for its education of Native children.

A report from the Fraser Institute cited high rates of failure on standardized tests, high dropout rates and low rates of post-secondary education.

The report provided rankings for each public school. Most have shown improvement in the past three years.
