Aim: This webinar will provide secondary schools with an expert overview of, and practical guidance on high needs funding arrangements for 2024/25. It will also explain updates to the national funding formula, how funding is allocated and what these funding arrangements can be used for.

Why this webinar is important: On 17 July 2023, the Education and Skills Funding Agency (ESFA) published its high needs funding arrangements for 2024 to 2025. On the same day, the DfE published updated policy on the national funding formula. Secondary schools should use both these documents to help with upcoming budget planning and consultations, particularly in agreeing how high needs provision should be supported, commissioned and funded.
