Determine the adjusted elementary school area requirement for the board in metres squared by applying, to the amount determined under paragraph 2, the supplementary elementary school area factor specified for the board in Column 2 of Table 29. 4. Determine the current fiscal year’s day school high-credit average daily enrolment of secondary school pupils. 5. Determine the current fiscal year’s day school average daily enrolment of pupils who are 21 years old or older. 6. Determine the current fiscal year’s continuing education average daily enrolment of pupils of the board, counting only pupils enrolled in a course for which the pupil may earn a credit and in which instruction is given between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. and excluding pupils enrolled in a continuing education course delivered primarily through means other than classroom instruction. 7. Determine the current fiscal year’s summer school average daily enrolment of pupils. 8. Take the total number of pupil places in education programs provided by the board that are qualifying education programs within the meaning of subsection 23 (2) for which instruction is provided on board premises. 9. Add the numbers determined under paragraphs 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8. 10.

Determine the current fiscal year’s day school average daily enrolment of secondary school pupils. 13. Multiply the number determined under paragraph 12 by the benchmark area requirement per pupil of 12.07 metres squared to obtain the secondary school area requirement for the board. 14. Determine the adjusted secondary school area requirement for the board in metres squared by applying, to the amount determined under paragraph 13, the supplementary secondary school area factor specified for the board in Column 3 of Table 29. 15. Obtain the adjusted total area requirement for the board in metres squared by adding the following amounts: i. The adjusted elementary school area requirement for the board determined under paragraph 3. ii. The adjusted continuing education and other programs area requirement for the board determined under paragraph 11. iii. The adjusted secondary school area requirement for the board determined under paragraph 14. 16.

The school is identified as an elementary school in accordance with the document entitled “User Guide for the School Facilities Inventory System Application”, dated November 2009. ii. The school is located at least 10 kilometres from every other elementary or secondary school, identified as such in accordance with the document entitled “User Guide for the School Facilities Inventory System Application”, dated November 2009, that is located on a different campus and has a current fiscal year’s enrolment that is greater than zero. iii. The school opened and began operating before September 1, 2016. iv. If the school has been the subject of an addition, alteration, renovation or major repair project that was completed on or after September 1, 2016, the total construction costs incurred by the board for the project, less any insurance proceeds received by the board in respect of the project, did not exceed the following amount: A. Take the number determined under subparagraph 18 ii or the predecessor of subparagraph 18 ii in the grant regulation for the fiscal year in which the construction began, multiplied by the variable area per elementary pupil for the school. B. Multiply the number determined under sub-subparagraph A by $2,039.07. C. Multiply the amount determined under sub-subparagraph B by the site specific geographic adjustment factor for the school. D. Multiply the amount determined under sub-subparagraph C by 0.5. 18. For each school identified under paragraph 17, calculate a top-up amount for school operations as follows: i. Determine the current fiscal year’s enrolment. ii. Determine the capacity of the school, in terms of pupil places, in accordance with subsection 68 (3). However, the capacity of a school, for which the number determined under subparagraph i is zero, is deemed, for the purposes of this paragraph, to be zero. iii. Subtract the number determined under subparagraph i from the number determined under subparagraph ii. If the result is negative, it is deemed to be zero. iv. Multiply the number determined under subparagraph iii by the benchmark area requirement per pupil of 9.7 metres squared. v. Multiply the number determined under subparagraph iv by the benchmark operating cost of $92.77 per metre squared. vi.
