History
The Administration Division was created as a result of a re-organization of the Department of Education in 1965, assuming the functions of the Business Administration Branch as well as some of the functions of the Registrar's Office.
The new Division was composed of the Departmental Business Administration Branch, Personnel Branch, School Business Administration Branch, and Information Branch (until 1968).
From 1966, the Education Data Centre (replaced by the Education Data Processing Branch in 1968) reported directly through the Division. A Financial Administration Office existed from 1967 to 1969. A Statistical Unit was added in 1969.
The Administration Division ceased to exist as a result of the reorganization of the Department of Education into the Ministry of Education in 1972. The School Business Administration Branch was renamed School Business and Finance Branch and moved to the Education Administration Division, and the other functions of the Administration Division were assumed by the new Administrative and Financial Services Division.
