Autumn consultation events

In 2023-24, as in previous years, the local authority will continue to set a local schools’ funding formula, in consultation with its schools, under what is known as a ‘soft’ National Funding Formula (NFF).  The government have recently sought views on implementing a ‘direct’ NFF from 2027-28, which will determine school funding allocations directly, rather than a local funding formula.

As we continue to see pressures in fuel, cost of living and the overall funding demands within the council, the local authority acknowledges the need to make the consultation and information events via a virtual setting again to allow people to attend. DSLS encourages you to share your views with the local authority by booking onto these events and responding to the consultation.

The virtual meetings are to take place :

Online bookings can be made via Consultations - Support for schools and settings (devon.gov.uk)

Please Note:  As these events are being held using Teams, DCC will require an email address for each attendee to ensure that an invite goes out for the events.  Booking closes at noon on Tuesday 4th October 2021
