18 North Oxfordshire schools are set to benefit from a notable increase in per-pupil funding from the Department of Education. Oxfordshire schools have been historically underfunded. That is why, since her election, Member of Parliament for North Oxfordshire, Victoria Prentis has been actively involved in the campaign for Fairer Funding in Education. She recently met with the Secretary of State for Education, the Rt Hon Gavin Williamson MP, to again make the case for equality of funding.
The following schools will benefit from increases to at least the minimum per-pupil funding levels of either £3,750 for primary or £5,000 for secondary schools in 2020-21.
