(a) subtracting from the current cost of operating of the board that provides the instruction, the grants payable to the board in respect of the eligible sum for French as a first language, the eligible sum for French as a second language, the eligible sum for Native as a second language, the eligible sum for full-day kindergarten and the reduction in class size in grades 1 and 2 as determined under section 21 of Ontario Regulation 103/93 (General Legislative Grants) and dividing the difference so obtained by the sum of the average daily enrolment that is,

(ii) calculated under section 3 of Ontario Regulation 89/91 (Calculation of Average Daily Enrolment) in respect of resident-internal and non-resident pupils of the board enrolled in summer schools established by the board in a course of study acceptable to the Minister that the board is authorized or required to provide in its day school program in grades 1 to 8; and

(b) multiplying the A.D.E. of the pupil to whom subsection 49 (6) of the Act applies or the A.D.E. of the pupil whose fee is receivable from another board, from Canada or from a band, council of a band or education authority, as the case may be, by the sum of,

O. Reg. 104/93, s. 3 (3).

(4) The fee in respect of a pupil referred to in subsection (1) who is enrolled in a high cost program may be increased by multiplying the fee by a factor agreed upon by the board and party from whom the fees are receivable when,

is greater than,

(b) the ratio of the A.D.E. of such pupils for whom fees are receivable by the board from such party to the A.D.E. of pupils enrolled in schools operated by the board. O. Reg. 104/93, s. 3 (4).
