Section 251 annual budget statement
By law we have to let the government know how much we intend to spend on schools and other children’s services in the following year. This is called the annual budget statement.
The annual budget statement contains information on:
• how much we intend keep aside for schools and children’s services
• how much we intend to spend on things other than schools and children’s services
• how we work out how much goes where
More information about the regulations governing this statement can be found under the schools funding arrangements at GOV.UK.
