256. At the request of the governing board of a school, a school service centre must provide childcare for preschool and elementary school students, in the manner agreed with the governing board, on the school premises or, if the school does not have suitable premises, on other premises.
If childcare is so provided, the governing board shall, at the request of parents, form a childcare parents’ committee that is composed of the childcare provider, the principal or his representative and three to five parents elected by and from among the parents of students attending childcare.
The committee may make recommendations to the principal, governing board and school service centre regarding childcare services, including the financial contributions required for those services.
