answer text <p>The core schools budget has been protected in real terms since 2010 and is set to rise from almost £41 billion in 2017-18 to over £43.5 billion in 2019/20 with increasing pupil numbers.</p><p>The introduction of the national funding formula for schools (NFF) in 2018/19 means that, for the first time, school funding will be distributed to local authorities based on the individual needs and characteristics of every school in the country. This is directing resources where they are needed most, providing transparency and predictability for schools, and addressing historic disparities between areas. For example, Coventry received £510 more per pupil than Plymouth despite having equal proportions of pupils eligible for free school meals and Nottingham similarly attracted £555 more than Halton. These disparities had persisted for nearly a decade, with little or no justification.</p><p>Under the NFF, the basic per pupil funding amount for Key Stage 4 pupils is £4,386. Pupils may also attract additional funding through other NFF factors or through other funding streams, such as the pupil premium. Pupils in areas which face higher labour costs will also have the per pupil amount they attract increased by the relevant area cost adjustment, in recognition of those costs.</p><p>To provide stability for schools, local authorities continue to be responsible for designing the distribution of funding in their areas. Because of this, local authorities can continue to set their own base funding rates for Key Stage 4 pupils, which can vary from the figure above.</p><p>Before 2018-19, the Department did not distinguish between key stages when allocating funding to local authorities through the dedicated schools grant. Each local authority will have set their own funding rates for Key Stage 4 pupils for each year in this period.</p><p>Students who take A levels typically do so as part of 16 to 19 study programmes. The Department does not separately identify the per student funding rate for students taking A levels rather than other qualifications in their study programmes. The base rate of funding for 16 to 19 study programmes is £4,000 per year for full-time 16 and 17-year-old students. Additional funding is provided on top of this through the 16-19 funding formula, to cover, for example, the needs of disadvantaged students, and to provide extra funding support for high attaining students who study four or five A levels. The £4,000 rate has been in place since the current formula was introduced in 2013.</p>

LAs will continue to set local formulae to determine individual schools’ budgets in 2018-19 and 2019-20.

answer text <p>The Department primarily allocates revenue funding for schools at local authority level. Individual schools’ allocations are determined according to the local formula set by the local authority, in consultation with schools. It remains our intention that every school’s budget should be set on the basis of a single, national formula, but we believe a period of transition will provide greater stability for schools.</p><p> </p><p>Revenue funding for schools allocated by the Department to Leicester, Leicestershire, and England in each year since 2013-14 is shown in the table below:</p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><strong>£m</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>2013-14</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>2014-15</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>2015-16</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>2016-17</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>2017-18</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>2018-19</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td colspan="7"><p><strong>Leicester</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Schools block</p></td><td><p>200.54</p></td><td><p>205.61</p></td><td><p>211.37</p></td><td><p>226.70</p></td><td><p>230.84</p></td><td><p>240.64</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>High Needs block</p></td><td><p>38.41</p></td><td><p>40.21</p></td><td><p>40.48</p></td><td><p>41.10</p></td><td><p>48.01</p></td><td><p>48.57</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>CSSB<sup>1</sup></p></td><td><p>n/a</p></td><td><p>n/a</p></td><td><p>n/a</p></td><td><p>n/a</p></td><td><p>n/a</p></td><td><p>1.87</p></td></tr><tr><td colspan="7"><p><strong>Leicestershire</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Schools block</p></td><td><p>338.09</p></td><td><p>339.66</p></td><td><p>362.79</p></td><td><p>368.92</p></td><td><p>368.28</p></td><td><p>380.14</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>High Needs block</p></td><td><p>49.56</p></td><td><p>52.34</p></td><td><p>52.84</p></td><td><p>53.87</p></td><td><p>63.16</p></td><td><p>65.98</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>CSSB<sup>1</sup></p></td><td><p>n/a</p></td><td><p>n/a</p></td><td><p>n/a</p></td><td><p>n/a</p></td><td><p>n/a</p></td><td><p>3.28</p></td></tr><tr><td colspan="7"><p><strong>England</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>Schools block</p></td><td><p>30,411.73</p></td><td><p>30,655.12</p></td><td><p>31,365.51</p></td><td><p>32,650.31</p></td><td><p>33,093.60</p></td><td><p>33,683.97</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>High Needs block</p></td><td><p>4,966.89</p></td><td><p>5,183.87</p></td><td><p>5,246.54</p></td><td><p>5,299.87</p></td><td><p>5,826.84</p></td><td><p>5,986.95</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>CSSB<sup>1</sup></p></td><td><p>n/a</p></td><td><p>n/a</p></td><td><p>n/a</p></td><td><p>n/a</p></td><td><p>n/a</p></td><td><p>468.61</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><p>Note that, in 2017-18, the balance between the Schools Block and High Needs block for every local authority was re-balanced, to reflect previous years’ decisions on the local distribution of spending between schools, high needs and early years.

The Department published notional allocations, based on 2017-18 pupil numbers and characteristics, alongside the outcome to the national funding formula consultation in September 2017. However, these figures were published to help to explain the impact of the introduction of the national funding formula; they are not comparable with the figures in the tables above as they do not take account of the actual pupil numbers used to calculate schools block allocations for 2018-19.</p>

answer text <p>We have announced details of the final National Funding Formula for schools, which will be implemented from 2018-19. Under the new formula, schools in Harborough constituency will receive £66.3 million in 2018-19; they would receive £68.0 million in 2019-20 if there were no changes in pupil numbers or characteristics. This is an increase of 3.2% in 2018-19 and 5.8% in 2019-20, compared to their 2017-18 baseline. Schools in England will receive £33.2 billion in 2018-19 and would receive £33.6 billion in 2019-20, on the assumption of no changes in pupil numbers or characteristics. Budgets after 2019-20 will be determined in a future spending review.</p> more like this
