Written Question
Schools: Finance
Monday 21st July 2014

Asked by: David Mowat (Conservative - Warrington South)

Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what her proposals are for the adoption of a revised funding formula for schools.

Answered by David Laws

We remain committed to the introduction of a national funding formula after the next spending review, when we can give certainty to schools about how the formula will affect them over a number of years. In the meantime, our allocation of an extra £390 million to the least fairly-funded local authorities in the country will make a real difference to those local authorities, such as Warrington, that gain from the proposals.

According to our indicative figures, Warrington will gain an additional £500,000 in 2015-16.

Oral Answers to Questions

"The Minister may be aware that Warrington is ranked 137th for funding out of 152 authorities. As a comparator, Westminster, which is ranked 10th, receives £3,000—60% extra—more per child each year than Warrington. It was therefore disappointing that in this new allocation, Westminster received a big uplift and Warrington received …..."
