The Kativik School Board, an Inuit-run school board, was created by the James Bay and Northern Quebec Agreement in 1975 to serve the people living in the 14 communities of Nunavik (Northern Quebec, north of the 55th parallel), and to empower the Inuit to take control over their own education.
Covering a territory of 647, 668 square kilometers, the non-ethnic Kativik Ilisarniliriniq currently has a school population of 2,913 children. Grade levels from Kindergarten to Secondary V are offered in every community. Pre-K is currently offered in one community. The language of instruction from Kindergarten to Grade 2 inclusive is Inuttitut, the mother tongue for the vast majority of the population. From Grade 3 on, parents are given the choice of having their children educated in English or French. The Inuit culture and language continue to be taught throughout primary and secondary school. The Kativik School Board has begun to actively pursue the goal of balanced bilingualism which gives Inuttitut and English or French equal status.
