Ressources éducatives aux étudiants

Définition
Politiques et programmes dirigés par le ministère de l'Éducation qui fournissent des ressources aux élèves défavorisés et à leurs familles. Il peut s'agir d'exemptions de paiement des frais de scolarité ou sous forme d'espèces (par exemple, des bourses d'études, bien que de nombreux programmes de ce type soient fondés sur le mérite et non axés sur l'équité) ou de nature (par exemple, des programmes de repas scolaires ciblés).

Education resources to students

Definition
Education ministry-led policies and programs that provide resources to disadvantaged students and their families. These may be exemptions from fee payments or come in the form of cash (e.g. scholarships, although many such schemes are merit-based and not equity-oriented), or kind (e.g. targeted school meal programs).
