PART 2 MAINTENANCE GRANT-SCHEME REPLICATION

4 Application of Part 2
This Part applies for the purpose of determining the amount of maintenance grant payable in respect of—
(a) a primary school which is not a primary school referred to in regulation 37(1)(b);
(b) a secondary school which is not situated in the area of a relevant authority within the meaning of Part 3;
(c) a secondary school situated in such an area which becomes a grant-maintained school after 1st April in the financial year in question; or
(d) a special school.

5 Determination of amount of maintenance grant.
1 Subject to regulation 31 (which provides an alternative method of determining maintenance grant in certain circumstances) the amount of maintenance grant payable for the financial year in question in respect of a school whose maintenance grant falls to be determined under this Part,—
(a) in the case of a school which becomes a grant-maintained school on or after 1st April in the financial year in question pursuant to proposals published under section 49 of the 1993 Act, shall be the aggregate of the following amounts—
(i) an amount (Direct AMG) determined in accordance with regulation 19,
(ii) an amount (Central AMG) determined in accordance with regulation 8 (or that regulation as it has effect in accordance with regulation 13 (apportionment)), and
(iii) an amount determined in accordance with regulation 9 (Section 11 funding), regulation 11 (as it has effect in accordance with regulation 20(1)) or regulation 20(2) (school meals), regulation 22 (contingencies) and regulation 23 (nursery education),
subject, in the case of such a school which becomes a grant-maintained school after 1st April in the financial year in question, to apportionment under regulation 21; and
(b) in any other case, subject to regulation 15 (which provides an alternative method of determining the amount of maintenance grant for such schools which became grant-maintained in the financial year in question), shall be the aggregate of the following amounts—
(i) an amount (Direct AMG) determined in accordance with (as the case may be) regulation 6, 7 or 12,
(ii) an amount (Central AMG) determined in accordance with regulation 8 (or that regulation as it has effect in accordance with regulation 10 (cash protection) or 13 (apportionment)),
(iii) an amount determined in accordance with regulation 9 (Section 11 funding), regulation 11 (school meals) (or that regulation as it has effect in accordance with regulation 14 (apportionment)), regulation 22 (contingencies) and regulation 23 (nursery education), and
(iv) (where applicable) an amount determined in accordance with regulations 24, 25 and 26 (additions or deductions representing unspent sums from previous budget shares, budget deficits from previous years and deductions from current year’s budget share).
2 Where in the opinion of the funding authority precise calculation for the purpose of determining any of the amounts referred to in paragraph (1)—
(a) would be impracticable;
(b) would not significantly affect the amount; or
(c) would be disproportionately costly having regard to the complexity of the calculation and the likely effect on the amount,
paragraph (1) shall have effect as if it required the funding authority to determine as the amount of maintenance grant payable for the financial year in question such amount as appears to them to be fair and reasonable having regard in particular to the local education authority’s scheme.

6 Determination of Direct AMG for a complete financial year by reference to a comparable maintained school’s budget share.
1 Subject to regulation 7 (alternative method of determining Direct AMG where the school became a grant-maintained school before 1st April) and paragraph (2) below, this regulation applies in the case of a school which became a grant-maintained school on or before 1st April in the financial year in question.
2 This regulation shall not apply in the case of a school which becomes a grant-maintained school on 1st April in the financial year in question pursuant to proposals published under section 49 of the 1993 Act.
3 In any case to which this regulation applies, and subject to paragraph (8) and to regulation 7, the funding authority shall determine an amount which appears to them to be equal or approximate to an amount which the local education authority could have determined, by the application (subject to the following provisions of this regulation) of the allocation formula in their scheme in relation to a comparable maintained school covered by the scheme, as such a school’s budget share for the financial year in question.
4 Where—
(a) at any time before the beginning of the financial year in question the allocation formula included a particular factor; and
(b) the scheme has been revised, varied or replaced under section 35 of the 1988 Act at any time before the relevant date in relation to the school as initially determined in accordance with regulation 27(2), and for the financial year in question—
(i) no such provision is included in the allocation formula, or
(ii) the proportion of a comparable maintained school’s budget share derived from the application of that provision would be less than it would have been had the scheme not been so revised, varied or replaced,
the allocation formula shall be deemed, for the purposes of determining the amount under paragraph (3), to include such provision for taking into account any such factor as it had effect immediately before the scheme was so revised, varied or replaced:
A new section 35 was substituted by section 274(2) of the Education Act 1993.
Provided that the funding authority shall add to, or subtract from, any sum derived from the application of the said provision such amount as appears to them to be fair and reasonable having regard to any increase or decrease in the actual or planned level of spending of the local education authority in respect of schools maintained by them occurring during or since the preceding financial year.
5 Where, by or in consequence of a structural or boundary change (or both such changes) within the meaning of section 14 of the Local Government Act 1992, effected by an order made under section 17 of that Act, a local education authority (“the transferor authority”) ceases on a particular date to exercise functions in relation to an area, paragraph (4) shall apply as if the scheme of the transferor authority had been the scheme of the authority (“the transferee authority”) by which such functions are exercisable in relation to that area on and after that date and the transferee authority’s scheme was a revision, variation or replacement of the transferor authority’s scheme under section 35 of the 1988 Act.
1992 c. 19.
6 Where—
(a) by the application of the allocation formula a part of a school’s budget share is determined by reference to—
(i) an amount of expenditure attributable to each registered pupil of each relevant age or falling within each relevant age group,
(ii) an amount or amounts (as the case may be) of expenditure attributable to any unit of measurement adopted for any factor included in the allocation formula, or
(iii) the amount or amounts (as the case may be) of expenditure attributable to any other such factor; and
(b) the proportion that any such amount is of a comparable maintained school’s budget share is less in the financial year in question than it would have been in a previous financial year,
the amount or amounts of expenditure so attributable shall be deemed by the funding authority, in applying the allocation formula for the purpose of determining the amount under paragraph (3), to be the amount or amounts determined in accordance with paragraph (7).
7 For the purposes of paragraph (6), the funding authority shall determine as the amount or amounts of expenditure so attributable for the purposes of the allocation formula the amount or amounts so attributable in such previous financial year as the funding authority shall decide, adjusted by such amount or amounts as appears or appear to them to be fair and reasonable having regard, in particular, to—
(a) any increase or decrease in the actual or planned level of spending of the local education authority in respect of schools maintained by them occurring during or since that year; and
(b) any significant change in the characteristics of the school occurring as aforesaid or which it appears to the funding authority will be likely to occur before the end of the financial year in question.
8 Where a school which became a grant-maintained school pursuant to proposals published under section 49 of the 1993 Act possesses a characteristic which is relevant to its needs and the allocation formula does not include a factor which relates to that characteristic then the funding authority may, after consultation with the local education authority and the governing body of the school, in determining the amount under paragraph (3) add such an amount in respect of that characteristic as appears to them to be fair and reasonable.
9 Subject to paragraphs (10), (11) and (12), references in this Part to a maintained school are references to a school maintained by the local education authority in question, and references to a comparable maintained school are—
(a) in the case of a primary or secondary school, references to a maintained county school, any characteristics of which relevant for the purposes of any formula of a kind referred to in paragraph (3) are identical to any such characteristics of the grant-maintained school and are references (in particular) to a school—
(i) the number of registered pupils in each age group at which is identical to the number of such pupils in each age group at the grant-maintained school, and
(ii) any other factors affecting the needs of which (including, in particular, the number of registered pupils at the school who have special educational needs and the nature of the special educational provision required to be made for them) are identical to any other factors affecting the needs of the grant-maintained school; and
(b) in the case of a special school, references to a maintained special school any characteristics of which relevant for the purposes of any formula of a kind referred to in paragraph (3) are identical to any such characteristics of the grant-maintained special school.
10 Where the allocation formula includes provision for taking into account the amount of any non-domestic rate payable in respect of a school, the funding authority shall, in applying the allocation formula for the purpose of determining the amount under paragraph (3), apply the provision as if the amount of the non-domestic rate payable was—
(a) in the case of a school which was a charity before becoming a grant-maintained school, that payable in respect of a comparable maintained school which is a charity; and
(b) in the case of a school which was not a charity before becoming a grant-maintained school, that payable in respect of a comparable maintained school which is not a charity.
11 For the purposes of this regulation, it is to be assumed that there is a comparable maintained school covered by the local education authority’s scheme whether or not there is in fact such a school; and, for the purposes of paragraph (10), it is to be further assumed that a comparable maintained school is capable of being a charity.
12 In this regulation—
“charity” means an institution established for charitable purposes only;
“factor” means, in relation to the allocation formula, any circumstance, fact or matter affecting the needs of individual schools and subject to variation from school to school which is to be taken into account in accordance with the allocation formula; and
“relevant” in relation to “age” and “age group” means an age group separately treated in the allocation formula for the purposes of determining that part of each school’s budget share which is to be determined by reference to numbers of registered pupils.
13 References in these Regulations to any change in the characteristics of the school include, in particular, references to any change in the number of registered pupils thereat.

7 Alternative method of determining Direct AMG for a complete financial year by reference to historic data.
1 Subject to paragraph (2), in any case where the school became a grant-maintained school before 1st April in the financial year in question, the funding authority may if they think fit, and after consulting the local education authority and the governing body of the school, instead of determining an amount under regulation 6(3), determine an amount in accordance with paragraph (3).
2 This regulation shall not apply in the case of a school which is situated in the area of a local education authority which, by or in consequence of a structural or a boundary change (or both such changes) within the meaning of section 14 of the Local Government Act 1992, effected by an order made under section 17 of that Act, is not the local education authority which maintained it in the preceding financial year.
3 Where the funding authority decide to determine an amount in accordance with this paragraph they shall determine an amount by—
(a) taking the amount which was determined under regulation 6, 7, 8 or 9 of the 1995 Regulations as the amount of maintenance grant, comparable to a maintained school’s budget share, payable in respect of the school for the preceding financial year; and
(b) adjusting that amount by such amount as appears to them to be fair and reasonable having regard, in particular, to—
(i) any increase or decrease in the actual or planned level of spending of the local education authority in respect of the schools maintained by them occurring since that financial year; and
(ii) any significant change in the characteristics of the school occurring as aforesaid or which it appears to them is likely to occur before the end of the financial year in question.

8 Determination of Central AMG.
1 Subject to regulations 10 (cash protection) and 13 (apportionment), the funding authority shall determine an amount for Central AMG which is equal to the relevant percentage of the aggregate of the amount determined in respect of the school for Direct AMG and the amount referred to in paragraph (2).
2 The amount is the amount, if any, which the funding authority estimate will be the amount of special purpose grants which they will pay to the governing body of the school in the financial year in question in respect of expenditure, being expenditure of the kind referred to in paragraph 2(a) of Schedule 7, for or in connection with the provision of education for a child who has attained the age of four years and which is provided at any time preceding his first school term starting after his fifth birthday (or, if he does not attend school, before the latest time at which he might reasonably have been expected to have begun to attend school if he had attended school).
3 In these Regulations the relevant percentage is the percentage determined in accordance with Schedule 1.

9 Section 11 funding.
1 Subject to paragraph (2), the funding authority shall determine in respect of the period in the financial year in question during which the school is a grant-maintained school (“the period in question”), the amount, if any, which it appears to them, were the school maintained by the local education authority, could have been allocated for the purposes of the school in accordance with the authority’s scheme in support of expenditure of the kind referred to in section 11 of the Local Government Act 1966 in respect of posts approved by the Secretary of State for the purpose of making grants in respect of such expenditure, not being expenditure expected to be offset by income received as central government grants or grant from any of the European Communities.
1966 c. 42, as substituted by section 1(1) of the Local Government (Amendment) Act 1993 (c. 27). Section 11 is extended by section 211 of the Education Reform Act 1988 to which there are amendments not relevant to these Regulations.
2 If no such amount as referred to in paragraph (1) could have been so allocated in respect of the period in question the funding authority shall determine—
(a) the amount which could have been so allocated in respect of an equivalent period in the last financial year, if any, in which any amount could have been so allocated; or
(b) if no such amount as is referred to in sub-paragraph (a) above could have been so allocated such amount as appears to them to be fair and reasonable, being not more than half of the amount of “approved expenditure” which they estimate will be incurred by the governing body of the school for the period in question.
3 In paragraph (2)(b) “approved expenditure” means expenditure of the kind referred to in section 11 of the Local Government Act 1966 both in respect of posts and of an amount approved by the Secretary of State for the purpose of making grants in respect of such expenditure.

10 Cash protection for Central AMG and Section 11 funding.
1 Subject to paragraphs (3) and (4), paragraph (2) applies in the case of a school which became a grant-maintained school before 1st April in the financial year in question and in respect of which the amount first referred to in regulation 8(1) (determination of Central AMG) or, where the funding authority determine an amount under regulation 9 (Section 11 funding) in respect of the school, the aggregate of those amounts is less than 87.5% of the amount which was determined in respect of the school for the preceding financial year under (as the case may be) regulation 10 (amount of percentage addition) (ignoring for this purpose the effect of regulation 11 (cash protection)) or regulation 18(4) (amount of percentage addition under alternative method of determining amount of maintenance grant) of the 1995 Regulations.
2 In any case to which this paragraph applies, regulation 8 (determination of Central AMG) shall have effect as if it required the funding authority to determine an amount equal to 87.5% of the amount which was determined in respect of the school for the preceding financial year under the aforementioned regulations of the 1995 Regulations.
3 Paragraph (4) applies where a school, which became a grant-maintained school before 1st April in the financial year in question, is significantly enlarged, as part of proposals involving the discontinuance of another school which also became a grant-maintained school before 1st April in the financial year in question, and in respect of the first mentioned school the amount first referred to in regulation 8(1) (determination of Central AMG) or, where the funding authority determine an amount under regulation 9 (Section 11 funding) in respect of that school, the aggregate of those amounts is less than 87.5% of the amount which was determined in respect of both the schools referred to above for the preceding financial year under (as the case may be) regulation 10 (ignoring for this purpose the effect of regulation 11) or regulation 18(4) of the 1995 Regulations.
4 In any case to which this paragraph applies, regulation 8 (determination of Central AMG) shall have effect as if it required the funding authority to determine such amount as appears to them to be fair and reasonable, being not less than the amount first referred to in regulation 8(1), or, where the funding authority determine an amount under regulation 9 (Section 11 funding) in respect of the school, the aggregate of those amounts, and not more than an amount equal to 87.5% of the amount which was determined in respect of both schools for the preceding financial year under the aforementioned regulations of the 1995 Regulations.

11 Calculation of an amount in respect of the provision of school meals.
1 Subject to regulations 14 (apportionment) and 20 (schools becoming grant-maintained in the financial year in question pursuant to proposals published under section 49 of the 1993 Act), the funding authority shall determine an amount in respect of the provision of school meals calculated by the application of the following formula—
(M×F)(P)+(S×G)(B),
where
M is the number of registered pupils in receipt of free school meals at the school;
F is the total of the local education authority’s planned expenditure for the financial year in question in providing meals to pupils in receipt of free school meals at relevant schools;
P is the number of registered pupils in receipt of free school meals at relevant schools;
S is the number of registered pupils at the school who bought meals at the school on a date in the preceding financial year determined by the funding authority;
G is the total of the local education authority’s planned expenditure for the financial year in question on school meals, other than free school meals, at relevant schools and excluding expenditure to be met from any charges for such meals; and
B is the number of registered pupils at relevant schools who bought meals at those schools on a date in the preceding financial year determined by the funding authority.
2 In paragraph (1)—
“number of registered pupils” means the number of pupils on a school’s register on a date determined by the funding authority;
“planned expenditure” means the initial amount appropriated by the local education authority for meeting expenditure at all relevant schools excluding any such expenditure falling within their aggregated budget; and
“relevant schools” means all primary or all secondary schools or all special schools maintained or formerly maintained by the authority required to be covered by a statement for the year under section 42 of the 1988 Act, according as to whether the school is a primary school, a secondary school or a special school.
Section 42 was amended by sections 275(1) and 307(3) of, and Schedule 21 to, the Education Act 1993.

12 Determination of Direct AMG for part of a financial year.
1 This regulation applies in the case of a school which becomes a grant-maintained school after 1st April in the financial year in question, other than a school which does so pursuant to proposals published under section 49 of the 1993 Act (where regulation 19 applies).
2 In any case to which this regulation applies the funding authority shall determine an amount in accordance with paragraph (3).
3 The funding authority shall determine an amount which appears to them to be equal or approximate to that amount of the school’s budget share for the financial year in question in respect of which, immediately before the school became grant-maintained, sums had neither been deducted by the maintaining local education authority in accordance with their scheme nor made available pursuant to section 36(2) and (3) of the 1988 Act, or, if made available, had not been spent by the governing body of the school in exercise of their powers under section 36(5) of the 1988 Act.
Section 36 was amended by section 12(6) of the Further and Higher Education Act 1992 (c. 13) and section 307 of, and paragraph 125 of Schedule 19 to, the Education Act 1993.

13 Determination of Central AMG-apportionment for schools becoming grant-maintained part way through a financial year.
1 This regulation applies in the case of a school which becomes a grant-maintained school after 1st April in the financial year in question.
2 Where this regulation applies, regulation 8 (determination of Central AMG) shall have effect as if it required the funding authority to determine the relevant percentage of the amount determined in accordance with the following formula—

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.

42 Sums to be added to or deducted from the CFF share.
1 Where, in the case of any school whose maintenance grant for the financial year in question falls to be determined under this Part, it appears to the funding authority that regulation 10 (cash protection) would have applied if that grant had fallen to be determined under Part 2, they shall determine the amount which would have been determined in accordance with regulation 10 in respect of the school (referred to in paragraph (2) below as “the protected amount”).
2 In any case to which paragraph (1) applies the funding authority shall add to the amount of the CFF share for the school the amount by which the protected amount exceeds the difference between the amount of that share and the CFF floor.
3 Where, in the case of any school whose maintenance grant for the financial year in question falls to be determined under this Part, it appears to the funding authority that an amount would have been determined under regulation 9 (Section 11 funding) if that grant had fallen to be determined under Part 2, they shall determine that amount and add it to the amount of the CFF share for the school.
4 Where, in the case of any school whose maintenance grant for the financial year in question falls to be determined under this Part, it appears to the funding authority that the amount determined under regulation 6, if that grant had fallen to be determined under Part 2, would have included an amount representing a comparable maintained school’s share of funding treated by the authority under their scheme as funding for—
(a) pupils with statements of special educational needs allocated in accordance with the allocation formula under the authority’s scheme;
(b) 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; or

they shall determine that latter amount and add it to the amount of the CFF share for the school.
5 The funding authority shall add to the amount of the CFF share of any school which became a grant-maintained school on 1st April in the financial year in question, an amount which appears to them to be equal or approximate to that amount of the school’s budget share for any financial year prior to the financial year in question in respect of which sums had neither been deducted by the maintaining local education authority in accordance with their scheme nor made available pursuant to section 36(2) or (3) of the 1988 Act, or, if made available, had not been spent by the governing body in exercise of their powers under section 36(5) of that Act.
6 (a) The funding authority shall deduct from the amount of the CFF share of any school which became a grant-maintained school between 1st April 1995 and 1st April 1996 inclusive an amount determined in accordance with sub-paragraph (b) below.

(i) the existence and the terms of any agreement in writing between the then governing body of the school and the maintaining local education authority regarding the repayment of such deficit,
(ii) the existence in the maintaining local education authority’s scheme of provision permitting schools to anticipate their budget shares for the following year in order to finance planned items of expenditure,
(iii) evidence that the maintaining local education authority took steps to reduce schools' budget shares where deficits have occurred and did not allow schools to carry over deficits from one year to the other with no planned reduction, and
(iv) the amount, if any, previously determined by the funding authority in accordance with regulation 15(3), 16(3) or 30(10) of the 1995 Regulations.

(i) increased by such amount as appears to the funding authority to be required, where regulation 11(2) or (4) of the 1995 Regulations (cash protection) applied for the purpose of determining (or redetermining) that grant, to reflect the amount which would have been determined under regulation 10(1) of those Regulations (determination of an amount as a percentage addition) for that purpose if regulation 11(2) or (4) of those Regulations had not so applied, and
(ii) reduced by an amount equivalent to any amounts for pupils with statements of special educational needs or for places in schools, other than special schools, for pupils who have special educational needs included in the relevant authority’s aggregated budget under their scheme as it applied in that year.
4 To the extent that the amount of maintenance grant referred to in paragraph (3) was redetermined as mentioned in that paragraph by reason of any increase or decrease in the number of registered pupils at the school, no account shall be taken of that redetermination for the purposes of that paragraph.
5 In the case of a school situated in a new CFF area, which was not a grant-maintained school at any time during the preceding financial year, the amount is the aggregate of the following amounts—
(a) the amount of the school’s budget share for the preceding financial year as initially determined (or, subject to paragraph (6), if that share was revised in the preceding financial year, as most recently so revised)—

7 In the case of a school, situated in a new CFF area, which became a grant-maintained school after 1st April in the preceding financial year, the aggregate of the amount referred to in paragraph (3), leaving out of account its apportionment under regulation 21 of the 1995 Regulations, and of the amount referred to in paragraph (5), adjusted in each case pro-rata according to the date in that financial year on which the school became a grant-maintained school.
8 (a) Where it appears to the funding authority that in the preceding financial year the maintenance grant or budget share of a school, situated in a new CFF area, was determined on the basis of an incorrect estimate of the numbers of registered pupils at the school for any part of that year and the relevant authority’s scheme makes provision for adjustments to be made in relation to incorrect estimates of pupil numbers, then the funding authority shall add to the amount determined in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this regulation in respect of that school an amount calculated in accordance with sub-paragraph (b) below.
(b) The amount is an amount arrived at by—
(i) taking the number which appears to the funding authority to be the number of registered pupils at the school in each age band on the date to which the estimate relates less the estimated number of pupils in each age band on that date multiplied by 7/12;
(ii) multiplying the amount for each age band under (i) above by the amount set out in, whichever is appropriate of, column (1), (2), (3) or (4) for that age band and in respect of that relevant authority in the table in Schedule 5; and

9 The funding authority shall add to the amount determined in respect of each school under the preceding provisions of this regulation an amount calculated by—
(a) multiplying the number of registered pupils in each age band on 18th January 1996, less the number of registered pupils which it appears to the funding authority were in each age band on 19th January 1995, by the amount set out in, whichever is appropriate of, column (1), (2), (3) or (4) in the table in Schedule 5 for that age band in respect of that relevant authority; and
(b) multiplying the aggregate of the amounts derived from sub-paragraph (a) above by the unit cost for age band 3 as shown in column (5) in the table in Schedule 5.
10 The funding authority shall multiply the amount determined in respect of each school in accordance with the preceding provisions of this regulation by a figure which is the aggregate of the amounts determined in respect of all schools to which this regulation applies in the area of the relevant authority in accordance with paragraphs (1) to (7) divided by the sum of the amounts so determined in accordance with paragraphs (1) to (9).
11 If the aggregate of the amounts determined in respect of each school in the area of a relevant authority by the funding authority in accordance with paragraph (10) is greater than—
(a) the secondary schools total for that authority; or
(b) in the case of the London Borough of Brent, the secondary schools total less the total contingency amount referred to in paragraph 16D(2) of Schedule 4 (“the adjusted secondary schools total”),
then the funding authority shall multiply the amount so determined in respect of each school by a figure which is the secondary schools total for that authority, or, in the case of the London Borough of Brent, the adjusted secondary schools total, divided by the aggregate of the amounts determined in respect of each school in the area of that authority in accordance with paragraph (10).
12 In the case of a school situated in a new CFF area, the funding authority shall adjust the amount determined in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this regulation by such amount, if any, as appears to them to be fair and reasonable, having consulted the relevant authority, to take into account any transfer of an amount of funding in respect of a pupil pursuant to section 262 of the 1993 Act.

(b) multiply the total number of funding units for the school redetermined in accordance with sub-paragraph (a) above by the amount per pupil for the relevant authority in whose area the school is situated determined in relation to that authority in accordance with paragraph 16A to D of Schedule 4 (or where that amount has been recalculated in accordance with regulation 40(2)(c), that amount as so recalculated) for the purposes of the initial determination of maintenance grant for the school for the financial year in question.
8 The funding authority may redetermine the amount of maintenance grant payable in respect of the school for the financial year in question—
(a) in any case to which paragraph (2) applies, by adding such amount as appears to them would have been payable to the school under the relevant authority’s scheme, had the school been covered by the scheme, in relation to such increases;
(b) in any case to which paragraph (4) or (5) applies, in accordance with the provisions of this Part, and

16A Calculation of a school’s CFF share in existing CFF areas : Authorities which use estimates of pupil numbers
(1) Where the number which appears to the funding authority to be the number of registered pupils in a particular age band at the school on the date for adjustment of last year’s estimates differs from the number of registered pupils of that particular age band which it was estimated for the purposes of determining the amount of that school’s annual maintenance grant or budget share, as the case may be, in the preceding financial year, would be at the school on that date then the funding authority shall, subject to sub-paragraph (3), determine an amount in respect of each such category of pupils by—
(a) subtracting that estimated number from that actual number of registered pupils and multiplying the resulting amount by the amount specified in relation to the authority in whichever is the appropriate of column (1), (2), (3) or (4) in the table in Part VI in relation to that age band and by 7/12;
(b) multiplying the number calculated in accordance with (a) above by the “amount per pupil” used in respect of the school under the 1995 Regulations;
(c) subtracting from the amount calculated in accordance with (b) above any amount previously made available for the purposes of the school because of an increase in the number of registered pupils at the school; and
(d) subtracting from or adding to, as appropriate, the amount calculated in accordance with (c) above such amount, if any, as appears to them to be fair and reasonable, having consulted the authority, to take into account any transfer of an amount of funding in respect of a pupil pursuant to section 262 of the 1993 Act.
(2) For the purposes of this paragraph—
(a) the amount referred to in respect of each school as “the 1995-96 CFF floor” is the amount determined in respect of each school under regulation 43(1);
(b) the amount referred to in respect of each school as “the pure 1995-96 CFF share” is the amount calculated in respect of each school under regulation 30(2) or (3)(b) of the 1995 Regulations (as the case may be);
(c) the amount referred to in respect of each school as “the deviation from the CFF floor” is the amount which equals the 1995-96 CFF floor less the pure 1995-96 CFF share. (Where a school’s pure 1995-96 CFF share is less than its 1995-96 CFF floor this figure will be positive, and where the pure 1995-96 CFF share is greater than the 1995-96 CFF floor this figure will be negative).
(3) The funding authority shall, in a case where regulation 31 (10) of the 1995 Regulations applied, reduce the amount determined under sub-paragraph (1) to zero and otherwise shall—
(a) in a case where the amount determined under sub-paragraph (1) is greater than the deviation from the CFF floor and the deviation from the CFF floor is greater than zero reduce the amount determined under sub-paragraph (1) by a sum equal to the deviation from the CFF floor;
(b) in a case where the amount determined under sub-paragraph (1) is either—
(i) greater than zero and less than the deviation from the CFF floor, or
(ii) less than zero and the deviation from the CFF floor is greater than zero, reduce the amount determined under sub-paragraph (1) to zero;
(c) in a case where the amount determined under sub-paragraph (1) is less than the deviation from the CFF floor and the deviation from the CFF floor is less than zero, redetermine the amount determined under sub-paragraph (1) to be equal to the deviation from the CFF floor.
(4) The funding authority shall determine the number (referred to in sub-paragraph (5) as the “total number of base units for the authority”) which is the aggregate of the number of base units for each school determined under that part of Part I applicable to the authority.
(5) The funding authority shall determine the amount (referred to in sub-paragraph (6) as the “amount per pupil”) obtained by dividing the secondary schools total for the authority, less the aggregate for the authority of the amounts for each category of pupils in each school determined under sub-paragraph (1), by the total number of base units for the authority.
(6) The funding authority shall determine the amount (referred to in sub-paragraph (7) as the “number of funding units for the school”) obtained by adding to the figure which is the number of base units for the school the amount which is equal to the figure determined under sub-paragraph (1) divided by the amount per pupil.
(7) The funding authority shall determine as the amount of each school’s CFF share the amount obtained by multiplying the amount per pupil by the number of funding units for the school.

B Calculation of a school’s CFF share: Derbyshire County Council.
(1) Where the number, which appears to the funding authority, to be the number of registered pupils in a particular age band at the school on the date for adjustment of last year’s estimates, differs from the number of registered pupils of that particular age band which it was estimated, for the purposes of determining the amount of that school’s annual maintenance grant or budget share, as the case may be, in the preceding financial year, would be at the school on that date then the funding authority shall, determine an amount in respect of each such category of pupils by—
(a) subtracting that estimated number from that actual number of registered pupils and multiplying the resulting amount by the amount specified in relation to the authority in whichever is the appropriate of column (1), (2), (3) or (4) in the table in Schedule 5 in relation to that age band and by 7/12;
(b) multiplying the number calculated in accordance with (a) above by the age band 3 unit cost for the authority in column (5) in the table in Schedule 5;
(c) subtracting from the amount calculated in accordance with (b) above any amount previously made available for the purposes of the school because of an increase in the number of registered pupils at the school; and
(d) subtracting from, or adding to, as appropriate, the amount calculated in accordance with (c) above such amount, if any, as appears to the funding authority to be fair and reasonable, having consulted the authority, to take into account any transfer of an amount of funding in respect of a pupil pursuant to section 262 of the 1993 Act.
(2) The funding authority shall determine the number (referred to in sub-paragraph (3) as the “total number of base units for the authority”) which is the aggregate of the number of base units for each school determined under paragraph 1(8) in Part I.
(3) The funding authority shall determine the amount (referred to in sub-paragraph (4) as the “amount per pupil”) obtained by dividing the secondary schools total for the authority, less the aggregate for the authority of the amounts for each category of pupils in each school determined under sub-paragraph (1), by the total number of base units for the authority.
(4) The funding authority shall determine the amount (referred to in sub-paragraph (5) as the number of funding units for the school) obtained by adding to the figure which is the number of base units for the school the amount which is equal to the figure determined under sub-paragraph (1) divided by the amount per pupil.
(5) The funding authority shall determine as the amount of each school’s CFF share the amount obtained by multiplying the amount per pupil by the number of funding units for the school.

C Calculation of a school’s CFF share : Authorities which do not use estimates of pupil numbers other than the London Borough of Brent.
(1) The funding authority shall determine the number (referred to in sub-paragraph (2) as the “total number of funding units for the authority”) which is the aggregate of the number of funding units for each school determined under that part of Part I applicable to the authority.
(2) The funding authority shall determine the amount (referred to in sub-paragraph (3) as the “amount per pupil”) obtained by dividing the secondary schools total for the authority by the total number of funding units for the authority.
(3) The funding authority shall determine as the amount of each school’s CFF share the amount obtained by multiplying the amount per pupil by the number of funding units for the school.

D Calculation of a school’s CFF share: London Borough of Brent.
(1) The funding authority shall determine the number (referred to in sub-paragraph (3) as the “total number of funding units for the authority”) which is the aggregate of the number of funding units for each school determined under paragraph 1(2) in Part I.
(2) The funding authority shall determine an amount which is 0.8 per cent of the secondary schools total for the authority (“the total contingency amount”).
(3) The funding authority shall determine the amount (referred to in sub-paragraph (4) as the “amount per pupil”) obtained by dividing the secondary school’s total for the authority, less the total contingency amount defined in sub-paragraph (2), by the total number of funding units for the authority.
(4) The funding authority shall determine as the amount of each school’s CFF share the amount obtained by multiplying the amount per pupil by the number of funding units for the school.
(5) The funding authority shall determine an amount (referred to in sub-paragraph (6) as the “additional amount per pupil”) by dividing the total contingency amount by the aggregate of the numbers appearing to them to be the numbers of registered pupils referred to in paragraph 3 in Part II on 18th January 1996 at each grant-maintained secondary school in the area of the authority and each secondary school maintained by it.
(6) The funding authority shall add to the CFF share for each secondary school maintained by the authority an amount which is the number of registered pupils at the school on 18th January 1996 multiplied by the additional amount per pupil.
(7) The funding authority shall determine as the “GM contingency amount” the amount which is the difference between the aggregate of the amounts referred to in sub-paragraph (6) for each secondary school maintained by the authority and the total contingency amount.

Robin Squire Parliamentary Under Secretary of State, Department for Education and Employment 20th March 1996

(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations, which are made under sections 81 to 84 and 94 of the Education Act 1993, replace with modifications the Education (Grant-maintained and Grant-maintained Special Schools) (Finance) Regulations 1995 (“the 1995 Regulations”) which are revoked. The Regulations apply to schools, including special schools, situated in England which have acquired grant-maintained status and in relation to the 1996-97 financial year. The main changes to the provision made by the revoked Regulations are set out below.
Part 2 of the Regulations provides for the determination and redetermination of the amount of maintenance grant to be paid to the governing bodies of primary schools, secondary schools situated outside the areas of the local education authorities specified in Part 3, secondary schools situated in those areas which acquire grant-maintained status after 1st April 1996 and special schools, on a similar basis to that provided for under Part 2 of the 1995 Regulations, save that—
(1) the percentages specified in the table in Schedule 1 are revised;
(2) provisions are made in respect of local education authorities and schools affected by local government reorganisation (regulations 6(5), 7(2), 15(2), 30(2) and 31);
(3) in the case of a school, which becomes grant-maintained pursuant to proposals published under section 49 of the Education Act 1993 and which possesses a characteristic which is relevant to its needs but which is not reflected in the allocation formula in the local education authority’s scheme, the funding authority may, in determining the amount of maintenance grant payable in respect of that school, add such amount in respect of that characteristic as they consider to be fair and reasonable (regulations 6(8) and 19(4));
(4) Central AMG, being a notional amount representing certain kinds of expenditure for the purposes of the school which, in the case of a school maintained by a local education authority, do not form part of the school’s budget share, is calculated on the basis of an aggregate sum which includes the amount which the funding authority estimate they will pay to the governing body of the school as special purpose grant in respect of specified nursery education (regulation 8(2));
(5) additional provision is made in respect of expenditure on employment of teaching staff to make special provision for pupils belonging to ethnic minorities where the local education authority’s scheme not only makes no such provision for the financial year in question but has never made any such provision (regulation 9(2)(b) and (3));
(6) the provisions relating to cash protection for schools are modified (regulation 10);
(7) the provision under which the funding authority may determine an amount, in respect of the education of junior pupils who have not attained the age of 5 years, which they are satisfied is fair and reasonable is modified to take into account grant payable to certain local education authorities in connection with vouchers for nursery education (regulation 23);
(8) the provision made in the 1995 Regulations for the funding authority to deduct from the amount of maintenance grant amounts in respect of deficits incurred in the school’s budget share in previous financial years before it became grant-maintained is modified so that in the financial year beginning on 1st April 1996 the funding authority take into account, in determining how much of such deficits to deduct, amounts which they have already deducted in that respect from the school’s maintenance grant in the preceding financial year under the 1995 Regulations, (thereby allowing the funding authority to deduct over a number of years amounts representing the total amount of such deficits) (regulation 25(3));
Part 3 of the Regulations makes provision with respect to the determination and redetermination of the amount of maintenance grant payable in respect of a secondary school, or in certain circumstances a primary school which was formerly a secondary school, situated in the area of any of the 23 listed local education authorities, which became a grant-maintained school on or before 1st April 1996. Part 3 does not apply to special schools. The basis of determination is similar to that under Part 3 of the 1995 Regulations save that—
(1) provision is made to allow the funding authority to add to the CFF share (as defined in regulation 37(2)) of a school whose maintenance grant falls to be determined under Part 3, an amount determined by reference to funding for pupils with statements of special educational needs or, in the case of Cumbria County Council only, identified pupils with special educational needs who do not have statements, or places in schools, other than special schools, for pupils with special educational needs allocated in accordance with the allocation formula under the local education authority’s scheme (regulation 42(4));
(2) the provision made in the 1995 Regulations for the funding authority to deduct from a school’s CFF share deficits incurred in the school’s budget share in previous financial years before it became grant-maintained is modified so that in the financial year beginning on 1st April 1996 the funding authority take into account, in determining how much of such deficits to deduct, amounts which they have previously deducted in that respect from the school’s CFF share in the preceding financial year under the 1995 Regulations (thereby allowing the funding authority to deduct over a number of years amounts representing the total amount of such deficits) (regulation 42(6));
(3) the existing provision regarding the calculation of a minimum figure (its CFF floor) below which a school’s maintenance grant may not fall is modified and allows the Secretary of State to determine the amount of the floor (regulation 43);
(4) provision is made for increases in funding for schools in the London Borough of Brent which have increases in pupil numbers and whose maintenance grant falls to be determined under Part 3 (regulation 52 and paragraph 16D of Schedule 4).
Part 4 of the Regulations provides for the payment of capital and special purpose grants on a similar basis to that provided for under Part 4 of the 1995 Regulations save that special purpose grants may also be paid to meet expenditure in respect of expenses incurred or to be incurred by the governing bodies of primary schools with fewer than 150 registered pupils for or in connection with staff absences and the procurement of professional advice.
The funding authority may also impose requirements as to the repayment of the amount of capital grant or as to the payment of the value of any premises or equipment in respect of which capital grant was paid, if conditions specified in those requirements are satisfied. The funding authority already has this power in relation to special purpose grants.
Consequent on section 93 of the 1993 Act, Part 5 of the Regulations, as did Part 5 of the 1995 Regulations, prescribes the total amount of maintenance grant which may be recovered by the Secretary of State from the local education authority named in a determination under that section.
