On 8 March, the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland set out a NI budget position for 2018-19 to give clarity and certainty on NI finances for the year ahead. It provides a secure basis for protecting and preserving public services including in education which has seen spending protected in real terms for the 2018/19 financial year.<\/p>

Education is a devolved matter and while we have ensured that sufficient funding has been provided to maintain the overall schools budget at the same level as 2017-18, decisions on the allocation of that budget and the associated assessment of the financial position of individual schools are a matter for the Department of Education, and in the absence of the Executive, the Department\u2019s Permanent Secretary.<\/p>
