www.schoolcuts.org.uk/#/schools. Use the link then add your post code. This will take you to a website that outlines the loss to your local school and what that equates to if teachers are cut. Some schools will be cutting support staff first others are fundraising.
Share the details of the loss here so we can see how this will affect our children's education. Also if you know what your school is doing to make up the shortfall please post it here.

It's not just salary though Muddling - costs also include pension, NI etc. Oncosts can be upwards of 15%.

Not sure about the figures but in the school I teach at, we have lost the school receptionist, the lady who did reprographics, one of the two ICT support technicians and the business manager. Tomorrow, the finance assistant and the person who organises cover/has done reception since the other one went, are leaving. The librarian is going at the end of the month. This is all after a "restructure" I am leaving (and not being replaced), as is the head of technology. Another two teacher colleagues have been made redundant.

It's awful.

I'm shocked at the figures!

£602/student. 😡😡
My area is usually a safe Labour seat but who knows?!? Labour and other parties seem powerless to stop the rout.

My DC's tiny village infants school - £1097 per pupil!

Labour can't stop it now but if we vote for them in the County elections and the General elections and they get a majority then they will stop it. It's one of their pledges.

DC school is -£439 per pupil.
The school I worked at is -£577. Six of us were made redundant in summer due to cut backs (teachers and TAs) and the children's centre that was attached to the school was shut down and they all lost their jobs.

-£304 per pupil
-10 teachers
(Secondary school, comprehensive)

-£503 per pupil
-8 teachers
(Primary school)

£559 per pupil, we have bank mandates to send money on a monthly basis, but not for that much.

This worries me.

-£243 per pupil
-1 teacher
Primary school

I'm with fatbird. (in so many ways!)

There's something not right about this. I looked up my school on this link, which says losing 3 teachers and £280 pp, but that's in direct contrast to my HT telling me this week that we're one of the schools that benefit (slightly) and we're actually ahead.

At a school I work in, none of the TAs are education graduates. They are all nans who are great for a cuddle, mopping up tears and laminating. Worth their weight in gold in a school like that where there's a distinct lack of parenting from home - but they couldn't teach a class.

Not the sort of TA that the government value then.

• 330 per pupil, down two teachers in DS2's primary (single form entry so there is only one FTE teacher per year group

• 459 per pupil at DS1 and DDs senior school, down 12 teachers

a disgrace the way education and health are being cut- services that everyone but the very wealthy rely on, while corporation tax is to be cut. Theresa, if you're listening, ALL our kids have a right to a decent standard of education

As I said (twice!) it's not the actual £££ received by schools showing here. It's a projection, based on a number of factors, of so called "real terms cuts", to the end of what it was thought would be the parliamentary term (2020). Secondaries in this area will also receive more £££ next year.

£308,000 total

£811 per pupil

9 teachers

School currently outstanding.

Has been mentioned in the Guardian.

Really wish Dh now applied for parent governor. Ffs!

As Chair of Governors of a school that is a largish primary school according to these figures we are going to loose 5 teachers equating to just under £200k. The reality is that taking everything that these figures are supposed to take into consideration, the expected real figure is something nearer half that.
15 years of managing the school budget to a small surplus every year says that the figures that we have in our 3 year budget projections are more accurate than these figures. They are simply taking everything at worst value. We are also talking about funding reductions over the next 3 annual school budgets not tomorrow, so why are so many schools taking such drastic action now?
Having said that nobody is under any illusion that things are going to get very difficult and inevitably we will have to cut some things and probably some staff but done with care and consideration, not apparent wild panic.

Labour can promise a lot of things, free money for everyone, 365 bank holidays a year, invitation to all 7 billion people to come live here etc
But at what cost?
I don't know why the Tories are making cuts in education? All I know is that my children's school, and 5 other schools in the area are being doubled in size.
So maybe they're making he cuts to spare money for enlarging the schools and increasing their capacity.

This is exactly why labour were wrong to pave the way to allow a city the size of Newcastle every year to move to this country, because we now have so many more children being born and in need of education.
It would have made sense for labour to invest in our services when they agreed to a more open door policy. I'm not sure either political parties are the way forward.

I don't know how anyone who has school aged children could look at these figures, vote Tory, then look their child's teacher in the eye. Or their child for that matter

That's a small school and still 2 teachers! And more than £500 per pupil. Fucks sake.
Get the Tory fuckers out this time.

Holy crap this is madness. How can anyone, parent or not, vote Tory when this is what they are doing to education?
It's a cut for all school budgets- reallocation is a distraction given the overall schools budget is being cut.

I don't know anyone with a child who could vote for a party which put thousands of young men and women out to fight a pointless war and get us into a recession but hey ho

If you are referring to the Iraq war, then the Conservative leadership supported it, and a higher proportion of Labour MPs (including of course Jeremy Corbyn) voted for the amendment saying there was no moral case for war than Conservative MPs. The Prime Minister supported the war. No Liberal Democrats supported it. So, if you are basing a vote on that...

Labour can promise a lot of things, free money for everyone, 365 bank holidays a year, invitation to all 7 billion people to come live here etc

They're not though, are they?

Thefalling tbh I haven't made a decision yet for who I'm going to vote for.
I was just raising a point that labour are not the perfect solution to this countries problems, because they caused a huge amount of the problems in the first place.

However I do like Corbyn, I think he's sincere and stands for a lot of what I believe in such as getting rid of nukes however he is ultra left wing and I feel the promises he's making are far fetched, and I don't know where he thinks the money will come from?.
