Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what representations her Department has received from the Association of School and College Leaders on the new national funding formula.

The Association of School and College Leaders (ASCL) responded to both stages of the consultation of the national funding formula, together with over 25,000 other individuals and representative organisations. We are grateful to all who took the time to respond to the consultation.

ASCL is also a member of the Department’s School and Academy Funding Group. This group meets monthly and includes a range of stakeholders that the Department consults on funding policy.

ASCL is also consulted as part of the Department’s wider stakeholder engagement activities.
