Educational institutions for students in grades K-12 (or 1-12) supported by public funds that provide a formal education through a graded system of instruction that focuses initially on basic skills such as reading, writing, and mathematics and later on a broader curriculum of study which terminates in preparation for specific employment opportunities or undergraduate study at the postsecondary level. Some provinces retain two systems of public education, generally known as "public" and "separate". Depending on the history/demographics of a particular area, the "separate" system may be either Catholic or Protestant in its traditions. However, all funded schools follow standard curriculums along with the specific terms and conditions of all provincial educational legislation and directives.
