Schools will get an extra £2.3 billion funding in each of the next two years, chancellor Jeremy Hunt said today.
The cash increase will apply for both 2023-24 and 2024-25.
Treasury documents published after Hunt’s announcement show core schools funding will rise from £53.8 billion this year, to £58.8 billion by 2025, a nine per cent rise.
Government said this “restores 2010 levels of per pupil funding in real terms”, a previous promise made by ministers.
