question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what assessment he has made of the effect of the national funding formula for schools on levels of socio-economic inequality (a) in Sedgefield constituency and (b) nationally.
tabling member constituency	Sedgefield
tabling member printed	Paul Howell
uin	1034
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 13/01/2020 answer text <p>The National Funding Formula commits extra funding to pupils with additional needs, including deprivation, low prior attainment, English as an additional language and mobility. This is because evidence shows that pupils with these characteristics are more likely to fall behind and need extra support to reach their full potential. In 2020-21, £6.3 billion will be allocated to 5-16 year olds with additional needs in England. Areas with high levels of additional needs will attract more funding and as a result Sedgefield receives higher than average per pupil funding. Next year, primary schools and secondary schools in Sedgefield will, on average, attract £4,496 and £5,609 per pupil respectively. This is above the national average of £4,352 for primary schools and of £5,578 for secondary schools.</p> answering member constituency Bognor Regis and Littlehampton answering member printed Nick Gibb question first answered 13/01/2020 17:54:03 answering member 111 label Biography information for Nick Gibb
