Fully fund the ever-increasing costs of running schools every year

Petition Details

Cambridgeshire schools are under severe financial owing to salary and pension increases, inflation, the Apprenticeship Levy, and growing recruitment and retention costs.

Impacts include increasing class sizes, narrowing of the curriculum, a smaller workforce and increased pressures on staff.

Additional Information

Funding for children with additional needs, and for nurseries and pre-schools is also severely stretched. Their outcomes need to improve. Additional funding is required.

Small, mainly rural schools have been seriously disadvantaged by setting the lump sum in the National Funding Formula at £110,000. This needs to be increased to secure the financial viability of small schools which are at the heart of the local community.

The fundamental objective is fair funding for all the county's schools.
