History
The Policy and Programs Branch was formed as part of the Department of Colleges and Universities created within the new Ministry of Education and Training in 1993. It assumed some of the functions of the College Affairs Branch, which had been part of the Ministry of Colleges and Universities until it was reorganized in 1992.
By 1994, the Department of Colleges and Universities was defunct and the functions associated with colleges and universities had been amalgamated with the functions relating to elementary and secondary education. In 1994, some of the functions of the Policy and Programs Branch were assumed by the Strategic Funding Team, part of the Policy, Priorities and Curriculum Development Division of the Ministry of Education and Training.
