Lincolnshire Schools' Forum - Thursday, 27th November, 2025 1.00 pm

The Lincolnshire Schools' Forum met to discuss and make decisions on school funding for the 2026/27 financial year. The forum agreed to continue including a primary school rent factor in its local formula, supported the council's approach to managing affordability and the minimum funding guarantee, and approved a 0.5% transfer of funding from the schools block to the high needs block. The forum also discussed the work programme for future meetings and agreed to move the date of the January meeting to allow for more accurate data to be presented.
