National Funding Formula

The National Funding Formula allocates government funds to local schools based on factors like student numbers, their needs (such as special education or socio-economic background), and the costs of providing education in different areas. Its goal is to distribute resources more fairly across regions and schools, ensuring that schools with more students or higher needs receive appropriate funding to support effective learning. This approach aims to reduce disparities and promote equity in education funding nationwide.
