Government must revamp the national funding formula (NFF) to allow schools to provide the education “society expects”, the body representing England’s academy trusts has said.
The recommendations have been made by the Confederation of School Trusts as part of a report, released today, on reforming the funding system.
Leora Cruddas, CST’s CEO, said money needs to be distributed “in a way that reflects actuals costs and ways of operating in schools and trusts today”.
“If the English state school system is going to be the best system in the world at getting better, it needs funding that enables it to flourish, and that is what our proposals are aimed at delivering.”
