Concerns grow for Sleaford schools' funding with two academies set to lose £1m each in next three years
Figures revealed by the National Union of Teachers show huge funding shortfalls to Lincolnshire school budgets with one Sleaford academy looking set to lose up to £1.1m over the next three years and the county council warning some schools could be left in a '˜vulnerable position'.
Drawing upon calculations on teacher union website www.schoolcuts.org.uk, the NUT says the figures show that Government funding policy means schools in Lincolnshire will be just short of £45million worse off by 2019/20 than they were in 2015/16.
The website compares each school’s funding in 2015-16 with the funding the Government predicts it will receive in 2019-20 under its proposed new National Funding Formula (NFF), adjusted for the impact of inflation and cost increases imposed on schools.
