Scheme for the financing of schools in County Durham

The School Standards and Framework Act 1998 (Section 48 and Schedule 14), requires that we have a scheme for the financing of schools and to publish this scheme.

Our scheme is approved by school members of the Durham Schools Forum after consultation with schools.
