tabling member printed	Lord Storey
uin	HL5335
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 04/02/2016 answer text <p>We are committed to ending the unfair funding system that means children with the same needs attract different amounts of money simply because of where they live. As we announced at the Spending Review, we intend to do that by introducing a fair national funding formula in 2017. This would be a significant reform, and we will carry out a full formal consultation later this year.</p> answering member printed Lord Nash question first answered 04/02/2016 11:49:01 answering member 4270 label Biography information for Lord Nash

question text	To ask Her Majesty’s Government what are the financial advantages of a school converting to academy status.
tabling member printed	Lord Storey
uin	HL5336
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 29/01/2016 answer text <p>Academies and free schools receive per-pupil funding on an equivalent basis to all other maintained schools. A fundamental principle of the programme is that no school should be financially advantaged or disadvantaged in converting to academy status. Academies have greater freedom than maintained schools to determine the use of the money they receive.</p><p>Academies also currently receive funding through the Education Services Grant in respect of services that local authorities provide for maintained schools and which academies provide for their own pupils. Academies and local authorities receive the education services grant on the same basis, according to a national per-pupil rate.</p><p>Academies can form or join multi-academy trusts, allowing them to achieve efficiencies through economies of scale and shared procurement. By coming together in a formal joint-governance structure, multi-academy trusts give schools the ability to maximise the potential benefits from collaboration.</p> answering member printed Lord Nash question first answered 29/01/2016 13:19:30 answering member 4270 label Biography information for Lord Nash
