The ‘conditions of grant’ document explains the conditions that local authorities must meet to be able to receive DSG funding.

The ‘technical note’ explains how we calculated these DSG allocations.

The ‘pupil number information’ explains what pupil numbers we used to calculate these DSG allocations.
