How much funding is involved and how much will actually be directly employed in teachers instead of administration? Of the 23000 people mentioned, let's say 12,000 are children. Of these, 8%  (960) are being educated on the 23 reserves. That means there will be on average approximately 40 students on each reserve school spread out amongst kindergarten to grade 12.  The distribution of the students is not equal across all grades. The skills of a single teacher do not cover all grades and therefore perhaps 3 teachers will be required for 40 students. Some very small reserves will have a school with only a couple of students yet will still need at least one and possibly two teachers. Each of the 23 schools will have some degree of administration from the band.

On the basis of the numbers, the self-governing agreement does not appear to be a recipe for future success of the students. The inescapable fact is that the remoteness of the reserves results in less quality education.
