Northeast Kings Education Centre (NKEC), opened in September 2001, is located on Bains Road in Canning.
The school has replaced Kings County Academy and Cornwallis District High School, respectively.
NKEC's students mostly come from the Canning, Kentville, and Aldershot areas, after attending Kings County Academy, Aldershot School or Glooscap Elementary. The school receives most of its competition from Horton High School, whose students come from New Minas, Wolfville and Port Williams, and Central Kings High School (known as CK), whose students come from Coldbrook.
