Schools Funding Formula

18/01/2021 - Schools Funding Formula

The Cabinet Member agrees to:

1)  Change the specific factor for sparsity in line with the NFF guidance;

2)  Inflate all factors at 3% (except Free School Meals at 2%) in line with DFE guidance;

3)  Set the Minimum Funding Guarantee (MFG) at 2%; and

4)  If necessary, to taper back all formula factors by the same percentage to ensure that schools allocation are contained within the schools block allocation.
