Under section 52 of the Schools Standards and Framework Act 1998, Local Authorities are required to provide a budget statement before the beginning of each financial year. The purpose of the statement is to provide information on the LA's education planned spending. The data contained in the reports are derived from part 1 of the Section 52 Education Budget Statements completed by local authorities. It is important that schools and others can compare funding so as to inform debate about budget levels and such issues as the balance of funding between primary and secondary schools. The data shown in this report is purely delegated or devolved budgets to schools at the beginning of the financial year and does not include any money held centrally by the local authority and spent on behalf of schools. Nursery schools only became part of delegated budgets from 2006/07 onwards so are not shown as part of this data for earlier years. Standard budget reporting arrangements seek to address the problems of consistency in collecting data for the whole of Wales. Local authorities are demographically, physically, socially and economically diverse and also have very different operational structures and practices. Number of pupils This shows the pupil numbers in each school or number of places in the case of special schools. For nursery, primary and secondary schools, this is be the number of full time equivalent pupils registered at the school, as used to determine each school's budget via the authority's relevant school funding formula. In the case of a school open for part of the year, the figure is scaled down to reflect the length of time for which the school is open. For example, for a school open for 7 months of the financial year, the pupil numbers are scaled down by a factor of 7/12. The census date for collection of these numbers for the purpose of the Section 52 statements is January each year. These figures will differ from those collected from schools via the Pupil Level Annual School Census (PLASC). PLASC collects the number of pupils registered at the school on a given day in January each year, from all nursery, primary, secondary and special schools maintained by the local authority. Individual schools budget This shows the budget determined for each school budget via the authority's relevant school funding formula. Regulation 14 of The Schools Budget Shares (Wales) Regulations 2004 states that budget shares must include grant paid by the Welsh Government under s.36 of the Learning and Skills Act 2000. In the case of a school open for part of the year, the figure is the actual budget determined for the school. Individual schools budget per pupil (£) This is derived from the Individual School Budget divided by the number of pupils, giving the amount of funding provided per pupil in each nursery, primary and secondary school. For special schools, this will be the amount of funding per place. Notional SEN budget This is used to record the amount within each nursery, primary and secondary school's budget determined with reference to the estimated need to make Special Educational Needs (SEN) provision. This figure is set to zero for special schools as it is assumed that all provision for such schools is SEN. Non-ISB funds devolved to schools This is used to record any additional funding allocated to individual schools (i.e. where the schools control how the funding is spent, regardless of how the funding is accounted for) and where the amounts are not included in the formula budget recorded in the Individual Schools Budget. This includes allocations of Better Schools Funding to each school.

Public schools have managed to maintain revenue growth despite significant shifts in funding, enrollment and parental preferences. Class sizes are shrinking every year as birth rates drop and the high school retention rate stagnates, straining revenue as smaller schools see lessened funding from governments. Public schools have contended with heightened competition from alternative education options, especially homeschooling and private institutions, as parents seek more personalized educational experiences. States have increasingly adopted school choice systems, allowing parents to use public funds or tax credits to pay for private schooling. The Trump administration has taken steps to promote these programs even more and has proposed establishing a federal voucher system. Despite heightened competition and a rigorous competitive atmosphere, strong per-pupil funding amid strong state and local budgets has buoyed public schools. Public schools' revenue has been climbing at a CAGR of 1.4% to an estimated $1.0 billion over the five years through 2025, including a rise of 0.9% in 2025 alone. Governments fully fund public schools. Support from state and local governments is especially vital, as they provide nearly nine-tenths of public schools' revenue. Despite a slight dip in 2022, strong tax income pushed up government funding for primary and secondary schools by 6.2% in 2023. These resources are enabling public schools to invest in tutoring and counseling to improve their educational outcomes and better compete with alternative primary and secondary schools. Public schools also used funds to help transition to online and augmented education and have avoided taking on further losses as shrinking class sizes leave them without pressure to continue purchasing new laptops or tablets. Still, public schools are not profitable and largely operate at a loss every year. Public schools are set to face a continued drop in enrollment as well as intensifying competition. To sustain revenue and support, schools will focus on retaining students and improving academic outcomes despite potential federal funding changes. The expansion of school choice programs will compel public schools to enhance their quality and offer additional services like after-school programs to sustain enrollment and win parental support as families gain more access to private schools. Still, charter schools will leverage their unique value propositions to remain competitive and buoy enrollment in the public school system. Public schools' revenue is set to stagnate, swelling at a CAGR of just 0.2% to an estimated $1.0 billion through the end of 2030.

Uttar Pradesh Budget 2015-16: Expenditure - Education Department (Primary Education)

Abstract

Madagascar had low school enrollment rates: only 60% of the urban children and 12% of the rural children completed primary school (World Bank, 2002). To improve the enrollment and completion rates as well as the quality of education, Madagascar government had substantially increased investments in the education sector. It committed itself to the Education For All (EFA) initiative and started to fully subsidize the tuition fees through the so-called "caisse ecole," and to provide school kits for all students in public primary schools. The Government also raised the districts' budgets for school material and started distributing free textbooks to schools.

This study investigated the different resource flows in the financing of the public primary education sector in Madagascar.

The survey was conducted in two rounds. The first round was carried out in October-November 2006 and the second round in April-May 2007. The study was implemented using stratified random sampling. Data from more than 200 schools in 28 districts was analyzed.

Public Expenditure Tracking Survey among Madagascar health care facilities and workers was conducted at the same time with PETS in Education.

Sampling procedure

The study was conducted using stratified random sampling.

The stratified sample was set up in such a way to be representative at the national level. Madagascar has 22 regions and 111 districts, and at least one district was visited in each region. Two districts were selected in the six largest regions. Hence, 28 districts were visited in total. The selected districts were obtained through random selection, giving greater (less) weight to districts with more (less) public primary schools within the district. In each district, three communes were randomly selected, giving greater weight to the communes with more schools. Within each commune, three public primary schools were randomly selected. By ranking schools from large to small and ensuring that a school was picked out of each tercile, a representative sample of school sizes was chosen.

In order to track different resource flows from the decentralized district facility levels to the schools, surveys were organized at district and school levels. At the local level, the directors of the education facility as well as teachers were interviewed independently. To ensure compatibility, the surveys at district and school levels were held at the same time.

In total, 252 schools were visited. Due to closure of some schools during either the first or the second round (or both rounds), researchers ended up with reliable panel data on 229 schools. Finally, it is noteworthy that the second round of data collection faced greater challenges to collect the data and therefore results were less robust for the second round. (For example, researchers faced mismatching codes for some schools and health centers as well as personnel codes between both rounds; there were a lot of blank entries on school equipment and other line items in the second round, and there were more cases where collected information on certain budgets did not add up to the total of those budgets as reported by the enumerators in the second round).

Overall, in the province of Antananarivo 54 schools were visited, 63 schools were visited in Fianarantsoa, 36 - in Toamasina, 45 - in Mahajanga, 36 - in Toliara and 18 - in Antsiranana.
