Schools: Barnsley East

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what assessment her Department has made of the effect of the new school funding formula on each school in Barnsley East constituency.

Answer

We recently consulted on a national funding formula for schools. We believe that the current funding arrangements are unfair and we remain committed to changing them.

We received over 25,000 responses to the consultation, which we are analysing in detail. We are grateful to all those who expressed their views on school funding and the proposed formula as part of this process. We will publish the response to the consultation in due course. We are unable to confirm the funding each school will receive in future years.
