know that the way funding is distributed to schools in England is currently unfair
and opaque. That is why we recently consulted on a national funding formula for schools,
and why we will deliver on our commitment to make funding fairer and more transparent.</p><p>
</p><p>We received over 25,000 responses to the consultation, which we are analysing
in detail. We are grateful to all those who expressed their views on school funding
and the proposed formula as part of this process. We will publish the response to
the consultation in due course.</p>
