- Before using this data, please check the methodology section for important information such as definitions, limitations and caveats.
- FSM expenditure in line 1.1.4 relates to expenditure on determining the eligibility of a pupil for free school meals
- Dedelegated items are those that the local authority retains central control over rather than delegating funds to individual schools to spend.
- To reduce burden on local authorities during the pandemic, data on planned expenditure was not collected for the financial year 2020-21. As a result, there is a break in the time series.
