Purpose of the consultation
The
Children,
Young People and Education Committee conducted an inquiry into:
- the sufficiency of school funding in Wales; and
- the way school budgets are determined and allocated.
The
inquiry focused on:
- the sufficiency of
provision for school budgets, in the context of other public service
budgets and available resources;
- the extent to which
the level of provision for school budgets complements or inhibits delivery
of the Welsh Government’s policy objectives;
- the relationship,
balance and transparency between various sources of schools’ funding,
including core budgets and hypothecated funding;
- the local government
funding formula and the weighting given to education and school budgets
specifically within the Local Government Settlement;
- Welsh Government
oversight of how Local Authorities set individual schools’ budgets
including, for example, the weighting given to factors such as age profile
of pupils, deprivation, language of provision, number of pupils with
Additional Learning Needs and pre-compulsory age provision;
- progress and
developments since previous Assembly Committees’ reviews (for example
those of the Enterprise
and Learning Committee in the Third Assembly); and
- the availability and
use of comparisons between education funding and school budgets in Wales
and other UK nations.
