uin	105407
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/10/2017 answer text <p>We have considered carefully all the responses to the consultation. The final formula we have now announced is the result of that process. A summary of the responses to the consultation, and how they have been taken into account in the final formula, is available at <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/schools-national-funding-formula-stage-2" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/schools-national-funding-formula-stage-2</a>.</p><p> </p><p>The importance of ensuring stability for all schools was a consistent message through the consultation. As a consequence, we are ensuring that all schools, and all areas, will attract additional funding over the next two years, while providing for up to 6% gains, per pupil, for underfunded schools by 2019-20 – and more for some of the lowest funded. We believe that this balance of fairness and stability is the best way to distribute funding to local authorities for their most vulnerable children and young people.</p> answering member constituency Bognor Regis and Littlehampton answering member printed Nick Gibb question first answered 09/10/2017 08:10:59 answering member 111 label Biography information for Nick Gibb
