1. Net current expenditure includes expenditure within schools and also that incurred centrally by the LEAs.
2. Figures are in cash terms and rounded to the nearest £1,000.
3. The decrease in local authority expenditure on education from 1993–94 reflects the transfer of responsibility for providing most kinds of further education from local education authorities to the Further Education Funding Council on 1 April 1993.
4. Financial data is drawn from the DfES Section 52 outturn statements from 1999–2000 onwards and the ODPM's ROI statement previously.
5. Nursery education was not shown separately until 1999–2000, therefore figures for nursery are included within pre-primary and primary.
6. Figures are as reported by LEAs.
