Priority Schools Initiative

Through the Priority Schools Initiative, the Ontario Ministry of Education has provided support to selected school boards in order that not-for-profit groups may have free after-hours access to school facilities in communities that need it most. Fully subsidized use of school space will allow local not-for-profit organizations to offer affordable or no-cost programming at these schools.

The Ministry of Education has provided Thames Valley District School Board with Priority Schools Initiative funding for the following three schools:

• C.C. Carrothers Public School (London)
• Knollwood Park Public School (London)
• Central Public School (Woodstock)

 Important things to keep in mind:

• School-based activities take priority.
• Not-for-profit groups are the only organizations that qualify for free use of space at TVDSB priority schools.
• An online permit request is required. 
• Availability of space for a not-for-profit group is contingent on its eligibility and our approval process.

If you wish to apply for one of these schools, please register online at: http://tvdsb.ebasefm.com/communityuse/
