answer text <p>Schools are responsible for designing a broad and balanced curriculum that will allow students to fulfil their potential and move on to the next stage of education and training.</p><p>To support breadth in the curriculum, the Department has designed school accountability measures that recognise academic qualifications (GCSEs) as well as technical and vocational qualifications (primarily Technical Awards). The Progress 8 measure has an academic core, but also rewards pupils’ study of up to three approved Technical Awards.</p><p>The Department has reviewed the list of qualifications that count towards performance tables to ensure that all approved qualifications, including Technical Awards, are high quality and support students’ progression.</p><p>Technical Awards are high quality level 1 and 2 qualifications that provide 14-16 year olds with applied knowledge and practical skills not usually acquired through GCSEs. There are 57 Technical Awards currently approved for inclusion in the 2020 performance tables and for teaching from September 2018. To be included in performance tables, qualifications must meet strict requirements regarding their size, the use of external assessment and synoptic assessment, and their grading structure.</p>

answer text <p>Funding for schools is at a record high. Per pupil funding is 50% more in real-term than in 2000.</p><p>The introduction of the national funding formulae is supported by significant extra investment of £1.3 billion across 2018-19 and 2019-20, over and above the budget announced at the 2015 spending review. Core funding for schools and high needs will rise from almost £41 billion in 2017-18 to £42.4 billion this year and £43.5 billion in 2019-20. This will allow us to maintain school and high needs funding in real terms per pupil for the next two years, and figures from the Institute for Fiscal Studies show that real terms per pupil funding in 2020 will be at least 50% higher than in 2000.</p><p>The following table shows the impact of the fully implemented national funding formula for the four metropolitan boroughs in South Yorkshire.

answer text <p>With the introduction of the national funding formula, for the first time school funding is being distributed according to a formula based on the individual needs and characteristics of every school. This will direct resources where they are needed most, and provide transparency and predictability for schools.</p><p> </p><p>The Government recognises that schools need stability. This is why the Department has provided protection in the formula, so that every school and every local area, will be allocated an increase of at least 0.5% per pupil in 2018-19 and 1% in 2019-20, over its baseline.</p><p> </p><p>The following table shows the impact of the fully implemented national funding formula for the four metropolitan boroughs in South Yorkshire.
