The tables below set out funding statistics for Welwyn Hatfield constituency, Hertfordshire and England in each of the last five years. The Dedicated Schools Grant (DSG) funding cycle is on a financial year basis, rather than an academic one, so this is what has been provided in this answer.
For Hertfordshire and England, the figures represent the funding provided through the schools block of the DSG. The figures in table one include premises funding but exclude falling rolls and growth funding (funding for local authorities to support schools with significant increases or decreases in pupil numbers).
The DSG is allocated at local authority level and, as such, the equivalent figures are not available for Welwyn Hatfield constituency. The constituency level data for Welwyn Hatfield is instead calculated based on the notional schools national funding formula (NFF) allocations for all mainstream schools in the constituency. The figures in table two are not comparable to those in table one because DSG funding cannot be broken down to constituency level, so the context of the funding figures are not the same.
The tables below provide average per-pupil funding for the last five years, 2020/21 to 2024/25:
Table one
Year | DSG Schools Block per-pupil funding * | |
Hertfordshire | England | |
2020/21 | £4,642 | £4,845 |
2021/22 | £5,024 | £5,228 |
2022/23 | £5,330 | £5,534 |
2023/24 | £5,634 | £5,838 |
2024/25 | £5,764 | £5,957 |
* Additional grants, such as the School Supplementary Grant (SSG) and the Mainstream Schools Additional Grant (MSAG) are included in these figures once they have been incorporated into the DSG.
Table two
NFF Schools Block per-pupil funding * | |
Year | Welwyn Hatfield |
2020/21 | £4,806 |
2021/22 | £4,981 |
2022/23 | £5,150 |
2023/24 | £5,445 |
2024/25 | £5,755 |
* The allocations that schools within a constituency actually receive are determined by the local funding formula in their area. Additional grants, such as the SSG and the MSAG are included in these figures once they have been incorporated into the DSG.
