| Increased funding two years from Feb 2006
The government will continue closing the historic gap between primary and secondary funding by guaranteeing a 4% per pupil rise for primary schools. The DfES has acknowledged particularly that primary schools need additional funds to implement the costs of the final stage of workforce reform. For 2007-08 both sectors have been promised a minimum increase of 3.7%.The two year funding settlement is an interim measure while the government continues to iron out the process of introducing its promised three year budgets. While the technical difficulties are being addressed, budgets continue to be allocated according to the financial year (starting in April) rather than the academic year.

The Court of Appeal pointed out that R and F's submission in the county court was of overt, conscious racism, and it was not prepared to find that there had been unconscious discrimination.The decisionThe Court of Appeal said that, unlike the ordinary civil claim where the judge decides, on the claimant's evidence only, whether the claimant has made out a case, in this case the judge had had the benefit of the whole of the evidence. Despite the school's failure to comply with the statutory requirements, the judge had been entitled to find on the basis of all the evidence that R and F had not proved racial discrimination. 调查取证 |
