Interpreting income charts
Here you can see how funding compares with similar schools. Funding levels are determined by a combination of central allocations to each local authority (LA) and the LA funding formula. The LA funding formula is set in consultation with schools forums.
In many cases, the benchmarking tool can also help identify similar schools that have self-generated higher levels of income, which can be invested to support pupil progress.
Interpreting workforce charts
Here you can see how the workforce compares with similar schools. The workforce data is taken from each school’s submitted census.
