HC Deb 04 February 2002 vol 379 c717W
Mr. Bercow

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills, pursuant to her answer of 8 January 2002,Official Report, column 712W, what the average National Grid for Learning funding has been per LEA in each year since 1997. [30123]

John Healey

National Grid for Learning funding through the Standards Fund began in 1998–99. Funding is allocated to LEAs by formula based on school and pupil numbers and any average would not be an accurate indication of the amount of funding allocated to each LEA. However, a notional average for National Grid for Learning allocations by LEA is:

£ million
1998–99 0.680
1999–2000 0.700
2000–01 1.366
2001–02 1.633
