A new SEND white paper is expected in the autumn. This may shift funding responsibilities in future, but without legislation, changes are likely years away, not immediate.

A 5% efficiency target for the DfE may hold surprises. 'Efficiencies' often look like cuts from the front line. We don’t yet know which programmes might be scaled back and how that might impact schools.

Capital spending ticks up briefly, then flattens. It increases to £8.3bn in 2026–27, before falling back to £7.7bn annually. This is a modest real-terms increase (assuming low inflation), but doesn’t expand the school rebuilding programme dramatically.

Staff pay, SEND, and energy will likely absorb most of the uplift. The partial funding of the 4% teacher pay award, rising demand in SEND, and ongoing energy costs will limit flexibility in school budgets.

The DfE is neither a big winner nor a big loser. The schools budget will rise by £4.5bn by 2028–29, as previously reported. However, inflation and existing commitments (e.g. teacher pay) will erode significant parts of this uplift.

Interesting discussion on @ttradioofficial.bsky.social this weekend about the role of unions. Edapt was founded in 2011 to support teachers who wanted protection without campaigning. Unions matter, but they’re not for everyone and teachers should have a real choice and they do!
