Halt the crisis in UK education by increasing school budgets in real terms

Petition Details

You may have read that funding in education is at record levels, because there are more children in the education system than before. Schools have had real-terms budget reductions because of the ‘flat cash settlement’ creating a 10% cut in real terms. While Pensions, NI and staff costs have gone up.

Additional Information

Schools have already been forced to make cuts and, without change will make further cuts including:
 Increase class sizes/reduce the number of teachers
 Staff teaching outside of their specialism
 Cut the number of courses
 Reduce curriculum time for courses
 Cut extra-curricular
 Reduce admin, teacher training & pastoral care
 Reduce the support staff to work with children with SEN
 Remove counselling support
Reductions in Health and Social Care, we are being asked to do more with less
