Aggregated schools funding is not allocated to primary and secondary schools separately, nor to parliamentary constituencies. Primary and secondary pupil numbers for each local authority in England can be found in the local authority tables for each year through following link: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/statistics-school-and-pupil-numbers" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/statistics-school-and-pupil-numbers</a>.</p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><strong>Financial Year</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Coventry local authority (£millions)</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2010-11</p></td><td><p>241.9</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2011-12</p></td><td><p>249.8</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2012-13</p></td><td><p>257.6</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2013-14</p></td><td><p>279.6</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2014-15</p></td><td><p>292.0</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2015-16</p></td><td><p>298.0</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2016-17</p></td><td><p>302.2</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2017-18</p></td><td><p>314.2</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2018-19</p></td><td><p>324.5</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2019-20</p></td><td><p>337.2</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><p>Data for allocations prior to 2011/12 are not readily available. Most funding allocations are calculated at a responsible body level, and cannot be broken down to per pupil, primary or secondary, and constituency levels. This is because many responsible bodies, such as academy trusts, span local authority boundaries and decisions on investment in individual schools are often taken at a local level.</p><p>Basic need funding is allocated to local authorities to provide new school places in their area. The Department provides basic need funding for every place that is needed, based on local authorities’ own data on pupil forecasts. These allocations are calculated in line with demographic growth in the local area rather than existing population, so allocations may fluctuate across years. There are now 8,594 more school places in Coventry than there were in 2010.</p><p>In addition to this, Coventry has been allocated nearly £4 million through the Special Provision Capital Fund across 2018-21. This funding is intended to help local authorities create new places and improve facilities for pupils with special educational needs and disabilities.</p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><del class="ministerial"><strong>(All values £millions)</strong></del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"><strong>2011-12</strong></del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"><strong>2012-13</strong></del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"><strong>2013-14</strong></del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"><strong>2014-15</strong></del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"><strong>2015-16</strong></del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"><strong>2016-17</strong></del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"><strong>2017-18</strong></del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"><strong>2018-19</strong></del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"><strong>2019-20</strong></del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"><strong>2020-21</strong></del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"><strong>2021-22</strong></del></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><del class="ministerial">Basic Need allocations</del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial">9.9</del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial">9.7</del></p></td><td colspan="2"><p><del class="ministerial">12.5 12.5</del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial">0</del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial">0</del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial">3.2</del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial">6</del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial">8.2</del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial">1.9</del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial">23.7</del></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><del class="ministerial">Special Provision Capital Fund</del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"> </del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"> </del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"> </del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"> </del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"> </del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"> </del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"> </del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial">0.8</del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial">2.4</del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial">0.8</del></p></td><td><p><del class="ministerial"> </del></p></td></tr></tbody></table><p><ins class="ministerial"><table><tbody><tr><td><p><ins class="ministerial">(All Values £millions)</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">2011-12</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">2012-13</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">2013-14 and 2014-15</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">2015-16</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">2016-17</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">2017-18</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">2018-19</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">2019-20</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">2020-21</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">2021-22</ins></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><ins class="ministerial">Basic Need allocations</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">9.9</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">9.7</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">12.5</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">0</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">0</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">3.2</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">6</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">8.2</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">1.9</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">23.7</ins></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><ins class="ministerial">Special Provision Capital Fund</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">-</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">-</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">-</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">-</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">-</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">-</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">0.8</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">2.4</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">0.8</ins></p></td><td><p><ins class="ministerial">-</ins></p></td></tr></tbody></table></ins></p><p>[1], [2]</p><p>In addition to basic need funding, the Department allocates condition funding each year to those responsible for school buildings to improve and maintain the condition of the school estate.</p><p> </p><p>For an explanation of condition funding and a breakdown of condition allocations paid to Coventry local authority to invest in maintained schools over the last ten years, I refer the hon.

The latest Early Years Foundation Stage Profile results available at <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/early-years-foundation-stage-profile-results-2014-to-2015" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/early-years-foundation-stage-profile-results-2014-to-2015</a> show that the proportion of children achieving a good level of development in relation to the most deprived areas, SEN, free school meal eligibility, term of birth, first language and ethnicity is improving. The proportion of children eligible for FSM has increased from 45% in 2014 to 51% in 2015 and the gap between FSM and other children has narrowed from 18.9 percentage points in 2014 to 17.7 in 2015</del></p><p><ins class="ministerial">We are concerned that some parents of summer born children either feel forced to send their children to school before they are ready, and before compulsory school age, or risk missing the reception year at school where the essential teaching of early reading and arithmetic takes place.</ins></p><p><ins class="ministerial">Subject to parliamentary approval, we have therefore decided to amend the School Admissions Code to ensure that summer born children can be admitted to the reception class at the age of five, where this is what their parents want, and can remain with that cohort as they progress through school, including through to secondary school. We will conduct a full public consultation in due course. </ins><br /><ins class="ministerial">I recently set out this policy intent in an open letter to parents, schools and local authorities.
