Schools and local authorities must follow the terms and conditions set out in the conditions of grant.

Published allocations

The allocations spreadsheet contains the provisional UIFSM allocations for the 2024 to 2025 academic year for each school.

New policies or funding rates cannot be announced during the pre-election period. The allocations for the first 2024 to 2025 payments have therefore been calculated using the 2023 to 2024 academic year UIFSM funding rate.
