We can stay kind and helpful while still discussing politics.
Canada has never had a federal department of education. Yet the federal government supports PK-12 education largely by sending money to programs administered by the provinces, and higher education by that and by more direct programs, administered by different federal departments, such as the departments for employment and science. These include an extensive federal student loan program. Colleges and universities are regulated by each province, and there is not a strong federal hand coordinating this regulation. It works for Canada. (More detail on the sister board.)
