<p>Funding from the department is primarily allocated at a local authority level so
figures for Cumbria local authority are given below.</p><p>Average per pupil revenue
funding figures for Cumbria are given below. With the introduction of the dedicated
schools grant (DSG) in 2006-07, the changes to the funding mechanism meant figures
were no longer available to be shown split by phase of education.</p><br /><p>Figures
for financial years 2005 to 2013 are shown below. These are in cash terms:</p><table><tbody><tr><td><p>Average
revenue per pupil funding (cash)</p></td><td><p>2005-06 (baseline)</p></td><td><p>2006-07</p></td><td><p>2007-08</p></td><td><p>2008-09</p></td><td><p>2009-10</p></td><td><p>2010-11</p></td><td><p>2011-12</p></td><td><p>2012-13</p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>Cumbria

/><p>Per pupil figures are using DSG allocations plus other schools related grants,
e.g. school standards grant, school standards grant (personalisation), standards fund,
and pupils aged 3-15 rounded to the nearest £10. Most of the additional grants were
mainstreamed into DSG in 2011-12.</p><p>The changes to DSG funding in financial year
2013 to 2014 with funding allocated through three blocks, namely schools, early years
and high needs, means there is no longer a comparable overall figure with previous
years. The table below shows the DSG schools block unit funding figures in cash and
real terms for Cumbria LA.</p><br /><table><tbody><tr><td><p>DSG schools block per

2011-12, schools have received the pupil premium which targets funding at pupils from
the most deprived backgrounds to help them achieve their full potential. In 2011-12,
the premium was allocated for each pupil known to be eligible for free school meals,
looked after children and children of parents in the armed services. In 2012-13 coverage
was expanded to include pupils known to have been eligible for free school meals at
any point in the last six years. The amounts per pupil amounts for each type of pupil
are shown in following table in cash terms:</p><br /><table><tbody><tr><td><p>Pupil

is yet to be released for capital programmes dependent upon project progress and this
has not been reflected in the figures.</p>
