Details
The spreadsheet shows how much funding local authorities received for free school travel in each financial year from 2016 to 2020.
Local authorities use this funding to pay for home-to-school travel. It’s for children from low-income families who go to school further from home than the statutory walking distances.
Funding is paid directly from DfE to local authorities in monthly installments as a Section 31 grant.
