Details

On 16 July 2015, the Department for Education announced schools revenue funding arrangements for 2016 to 2017.

The documents on this page provide information about schools funding arrangements for 2016 to 2017. The ‘Schools block units of funding 2016 to 2017 (SBUF): technical note’ confirms each local authority’s schools block unit of funding for 2016 to 2017 and explains how we calculated the funding.

The ‘Schools funding 2016 to 2017: operational guide’ and ‘Schools funding 2016 to 2017: targeted funding for high needs, growth and falling rolls’ provide detailed guidance to local authorities and schools.

Local authorities use the ‘Schools finance disapplication request form’ to request a disapplication of the School and Early Years Finance (England) Regulations.
