(1)

Where the amount of the secondary schools budget for any relevant authority for the financial year in question (defined in paragraph (2)) exceeds the secondary schools total for that authority and year, the funding authority shall—

(a)

determine the amount (referred to in sub-paragraph (b) below as “the increased amount”) by which that budget exceeds that total;

(b)

determine to two decimal places the percentage which the increased amount is of the secondary schools total for the authority; and

(c)

add to the amount of the CFF share for each grant-maintained secondary school situated in the area of the authority the amount obtained by multiplying the amount of that share by that percentage.

(2)

For the purposes of paragraph (1) the amount of an authority’s secondary schools budget for the financial year in question is the sum for that financial year of the amounts specified in sub-paragraphs (a) to (d) below less the amount specified in sub-paragraph (e) below—

(a)

the aggregate of the amounts which the funding authority determine would be the amounts of maintenance grant in respect of all grant-maintained secondary schools situated in the area of the authority if those amounts were determined in accordance with Part 2 and regulation 10 (cash protection) did not apply in the case of any school;

(b)

the aggregate of the budget shares (as initially determined before the beginning of the financial year) of all secondary schools maintained by the authority;

(c)

the aggregate of the amounts which equal the relevant percentage of the budget shares referred to in sub-paragraph (b) above;

(d)

the aggregate of the amounts which it appears to the funding authority would be the amounts determined under regulation 11 (school meals) in respect of all secondary schools maintained by the authority if those schools had been grant-maintained schools to which that regulation applies; and

(e)

where under the relevant authority’s scheme amounts for—

(i)

pupils with statements of special educational needs,

(ii)

in the case of Cumbria County Council only, identified pupils with special educational needs who do not have statements and in respect of whom funding is allocated other than on the basis referred to in paragraph 7(8) of Schedule 4, and

(iii)

places in schools, other than special schools, for pupils with special educational needs,

are included in the authority’s aggregated budget for that financial year, the aggregate of such amounts for all secondary schools in the area of the relevant authority.
