Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how much her Department allocated to Enfield Council through the 16 to 19 Education Grant in each of the last ten years in real terms.

The department allocates 16-19 funding, through a national funding formula to individual institutions who can use their funds, as appropriate, to support students in line with the funding rules we set each year. The department publishes allocations by institution. Allocations covering the last 10 academic years can be found at: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/16-to-19-education-funding-allocations.

The 16 to 19 funding is allocated to Enfield London Borough Council as a training provider. The council are also allocated funding to pay maintained school sixth forms and maintained special schools (bursary funding).

The government publishes GDP deflators that can be used to understand the impact of inflation over time. These are available at: GDP deflators at market prices, and money GDP March 2023 (Quarterly National Accounts) - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk).
