 Action | Fair and adequate school funding
You will recall Devon
is part of a joint campaign for fairer funding along with 16 other
authorities. Following the general election outcome on 8 June, schools
are strongly encouraged to contact their parent communities again with this
latest communication regarding school funding.
The salient points are as follows:
* The Conservative manifesto pledged an additional £4bn to fund schools over the next five years
*
Schools across England are still awaiting a detailed announcement
relating to the introduction of an urgently needed National Funding
Formula
* School funding – and severe teacher shortages – are having a profoundly negative effect on school provision.
Please send a copy of this L E T T E R to your parents which outlines further details and reassures them that schools are determined to work collaboratively to ensure
fair and adequate school funding for every school.
