Schools spend a lot of public money every year, and how they spend it has a profound impact on pupils’ achievement and future prospects. An efficient school or education system is central to the country’s future prosperity.
This review was undertaken to try to understand how schools spend the money they have available. In particular, to find out what the best schools do to ensure they are making the most of their money, and how to apply those lessons to the sector as a whole.
