Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how much supplementary funding each maintained nursery school has received in the current financial year.

Local authorities receive funding from central government for delivering the early years entitlements through the Dedicated Schools Grant. Local authorities are then responsible for deciding how they fund individual early years providers, including maintained nursery schools.

Our provisional allocations to local authorities in respect of the Maintained Nursery School supplementary funding for the financial year 2019-20 are available in the 2019-20 Dedicated Schools Grant allocations table on GOV.UK at: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/dedicated-schools-grant-dsg-2019-to-2020.

Final allocations for 2019-20 will be made in the summer of 2020.
