Annual consultation on the school’s block budget funding for 2025-26

The annual consultation on the school’s block budget funding for 2025-26 is now open for your feedback. The link to the consultation is here.

The results of the consultation will be presented as evidence to Schools Forum, the County Council Cabinet and the Secretary of State to inform the decision on the Schools Funding Formula for 2025-26.

I am very sorry that the timing of this consultation is less than ideal for schools. This tight deadline is due to the very late release of information from the Department for Education (DfE) and the statutory requirement to return the schools budgets to the DfE by the 22 of January 2025.

If you have any questions related to this consultation, please email: schoolfunding@Oxfordshire.gov.uk

Thank you for your understanding. I hope that your school is able to respond.
