<p>The Department frequently reviews the adequacy of funding across its sectors. An
additional £1.3 billion has been invested in schools across 2018/19 and 2019/20, over
and above the allocations set out at the last Spending Review. £7 billion will be
invested in further education and skills this year alone to make sure there is an
education or training place for every 16 to 19-year old who wants one, and a major
review of post-18 education and funding is underway.</p><p> </p><p>The Spending Review

the education sector needs over the coming years, and to securing the right deal for
education.</p>
