    The NLSchools brand will now represent the K-12 English public school system.

    The NLSchools brand will now represent the K-12 English public school system. All school-facing functions (including the daily operations of schools), teacher hiring and allocation, and school transportation remain unchanged. The Department of Transportation and Infrastructure will undertake new responsibilities, which include the daily operations of student transportation, as well as supporting maintenance services to school facilities. Other actions include phasing out the 1.6 kilometre rule to access school bus services and a process to review and evolve the K-12 educational curriculum. Aligning program and curriculum development and enhancing service delivery will improve the education experience and help students excel.
