Details

Data showing school spend trends per pupil:

  • in total
  • on teachers
  • on education staff
  • on exam fees
  • on education consultancy, supply staff and other spending categories

This note explains how we compiled a single time series of school spending data from August 2002 to July 2016.

We calculated spending on a per pupil basis. From 2012 onward, we combined the separate spending returns for local-authority-maintained schools and academies which have some differences.
