Petition Action

For the government to scrap the unfair funding formula for schools.

Petition Details

In December 2016 the Conservative government released its Fair Funding Formula for schools. Consequently, thousands of schools are set to see their budgets reduced over the coming years. Some economic strategists have predicted that up to 90% of schools will see real-terms cut to their funding.
