RADICAL CHANGE IN SCHOOLS FUNDING NEEDED – Lib Dems
Commenting on today’s IFS report that reveals local authorities are not spending money allocated for deprived children correctly, Liberal Democrat Shadow Children, Schools and Families Secretary, David Laws said:
"This report makes the clearest possible case for a radical change to Britain’s system of funding schools.
"We need a fairer way to make sure that extra spending is getting through to those schools which most need the money.
"This research supports the case for introducing a Pupil Premium to bring the funding of the disadvantaged youngsters up to the level of the private sector."
