The adoption in 1982 of the Canadian Constitution act, with its embedded Charter of rights and Freedoms, ushered in an era of unprecedented judicial influence on Canada's public policy. the Courts, the Charter, and the Schools examines how the Constitution act has affected educational policy during the first twenty-five years of the Charter by analysing landmark rulings handed down from appellate courts and the supreme Court.
