Petition Requesting A Rethink On The Single Funding Framework

[HappyMaz]

Just noticed on Twitter that there's a petition organised by Early Education against the Single Funding Formula.

 

If you're concerned, you can sign it here!

 

More information about the campaign against the single funding formula can be found here, along with details of a toolkit designed to help settings prepare for discussions with their LA about the problems caused by the SFF and also to measure its impact on their settting.

Thankyou for that - I'll look at that toolkit

Just added my name for what its worth!!

I just had an email with the Government's response - you can see it here.

 

Seems the coalition government has become very adept in saying absolutely nothing at all. I particularly like the last sentence:-

 

Ministers are aware of the range of provider views, about the way free nursery education is funded, and are keen to hear further detail about the impact of the EYSFF across the country.

 

That's ok then.

Yes I've just read mine and thought it was a load of meaningless platitudes!!!!
