2024/25 Funding Transfer – Schools Block Dedicated Schools Grant

Mainstream schools and academies, and the North Yorkshire Schools Forum are to be consulted on the transfer of 0.5% funding from the Schools Block Dedicated Schools Grant (DSG) to the High Needs budget for the 2024/25 financial year. In the event of the North Yorkshire Schools Forum not supporting the transfer request and the local authority still seeking to proceed with the transfer, the local authority will be required to submit a disapplication request to the DfE for Secretary of State consideration of the request. An in-principle approval for the submission of the disapplication request to the DfE is requested, in the event of this being required.
The final decision on the 2024/25 school budget, including any transfer of funding, where permitted, from the Schools Block DSG to the High Needs budget, will be taken by the Executive on 9 January 2024
