Recommendations
The Forum is asked to: a) Note the report from the Schools Block Working Group held on 20 June 2019; b) Ratify the Group's recommendations.
Background On 20 June 2019, the Schools Block Working Group considered a number of reports. A summary of the key issues and recommendations arising from the Working Group's considerations of the items are provided in this report.
1. 2020/21 De-Delegation Proposals The school funding framework continues to allow service de-delegations in 2020/21.
Continuing De-delegations In 2019/20, the Forum formally approved 3 service de-delegations, relating to: o Staff costs – Public Duties/Suspensions; o Museum Service - Primary Schools Only; o Support for Schools in Financial Difficulty.
For 2020/21, the LA is again proposing to consult on the continuation of these services as de-delegations, with arrangements and costs expected to be broadly in line with those in 2019/20.
Further information about the Trade Union Facilities Time Agreement that is included within the Staff Costs de-delegation is provided as a separate agenda item.
Possible Additional De-delegations for 2020/21 For 2020/21, the LA has been looking at other de-delegation possibilities. The rationale for considering these proposals is linked to the ongoing financial pressure facing the High Needs Block of the DSG. Locally, modelling indicates that the Lancashire HNB deficit may be in the region of £13.2m by the end of 2020/21, without any further mitigating actions.
Intervention Provision Behaviour support is amongst the limited list of services that are eligible for de- delegation under the DfE's current school funding regulations.
Primary Inclusion Hub proposals formed around school views are now proposed for de-delegation proposals for 2020/21. Further information about the current Primary Inclusion Hub arrangements was provided for the Working Group.
It was noted that at the High Needs Block, members supported the release of funding from that block for the 'interim' year of 2019/20, following further presentations about intended outcomes and strengthened governance.
Initial calculations by the LA suggest that in 2020/21, Inclusion Hub de-delegation proposals might equate to the following costs:
Inclusion Hubs Primary Rate per pupil £11.00 Total De-delegation £1,000,000
It was also noted that a review of secondary SEMH support and alternative provision took place in 2018/19 with the aim of developing a system-led approach, which is in alignment with the developments in the primary phase. The recommendations from the review are being implemented in partnership with secondary leaders.
Copyright Licencing Since April 2015, the DfE have negotiated a number of copyright licences for schools and academies at a national level. The cost of these licences for Lancashire schools and academies are deducted from our Dedicated Schools Grant (DSG) allocation each year.
From April 2019, the total gross cost of the Lancashire licences was £1.12m. However, the County Council is able to reclaim the VAT element of the charge, which leaves a net cost to the DSG for 2019/20 of circa £937k.
Licences and subscriptions are currently on the list of allowable de-delegations and initially, the LA was considering if the cost of the copyright licences could be de- delegated, with the aim of freeing up headroom in the CSSB, which could in turn be used to offset ongoing cost pressures in the High Needs Block.
However, further examination of the ESFA Operational Guidance for 2019/20 reveals that the national licences negotiated by DfE are specifically excluded from the de- delegation arrangements, so this option is no longer considered viable.
Members considered the report and were supportive of the proposed 2020/21 de-delegation consultations being issued. Some additional questions relating to the operation of Inclusion Hubs were raised, including possible flexibilities for some pupils around current 12 week placements level and some inconsistencies between districts.
The Working Group: a) Noted the report; b) Supported of the proposed 2020/21 de-delegation consultations being issued in September 2019 c) Requested that the comments on the current operation of primary inclusion hubs be passed to relevant officers.
2. Trade Union Facilities Agreement Jeanette Whitham, Head of Schools HR Team, attended the Working Group for this item.
The Facilities Agreement for teacher trade unions demonstrates the commitment that the Schools Forum and Council have towards fostering and maintaining good relations with employee representatives.
In June 2018, a report was submitted to Forum for consideration of the level of trade union facilities agreement funding, which had been set in 1998 and had remained at the same level, despite the fact that 13% of teachers were employed in Academy schools and therefore not covered by de-delegation decisions, including access to paid local trade union officials via the Facilities Agreement.
In October 2018, Forum voted on the staff costs de-delegation and decided to continue the de-delegation in 2019/20, at the existing level. This had also been the option receiving the highest overall response from schools during the Forum consultation process. However, Forum members agreed to keep the contribution level of the facilities time agreement under review, as some members had supported the option to reduce the level in line with the teacher numbers/union reorganisation adjustment. This report was presented to provide the current position and allow Forum members to re-consider this issue.
Historical position The current level of funding was set in 1998, when Blackburn and Blackpool became unitary authorities and 25% of Lancashire teachers transferred out of Lancashire Authority. At this time, the number of FTE facilities posts was reduced from 15 to 12.
In approximately 2010, the Council took a decision to reduce the number of centrally funded UNISON representative posts by 2 FTE. At that time, due to the increasing numbers of support staff in schools and the fact that the Equal Pay and terms and conditions reviews were ongoing, Schools Forum agreed to fund one post for a schools UNISON officer. This arrangement has remained in place ever since.
Funding position On an annual basis, schools are asked whether they wish to de-delegate funding for Public Services duties. The large majority of this budget funds facilities time equating to 12 Full Time Equivalent (FTE) teaching posts for the four main teaching unions – NAHT, ASCL, NASUWT and NEU, and the 1 FTE post for UNISON.
In addition to the representatives funded by the Schools Forum, many schools have workplace representatives who may deal with HR casework for their school. The cost of any release for school representatives is met by the school budget and not by the Schools Forum.
Each trade union also has regional officials, funded by their association. Within Lancashire, experience shows that the regional officials deal with very serious casework matters, usually where a member's employment is at risk.
Current allocations The current allocations to the five unions (from the 12 FTE) were determined as a result of membership numbers when the initial agreement was written, and were not changed following the amalgamation of NUT and ATL. These allocations are as follows:
Union NAHT ASCL NEU NASUWT UNISON No. of FTE 1.6 FTE 1.2 FTE 6.0 FTE 3.2 FTE 1 FTE representatives (13%) (10%) (50%) (27%) Membership 608 204 6,480 5,868 5886 numbers* (5%) (2%) (49%) (45%) * Membership numbers have been taken from historical reports over the period 2013-18
Each union determines how its allocation is split between its nominated representatives.
Based on the most recent School Workforce data, the number of teaching staff in Lancashire Schools is 10,063. Of these, 14% (1,419) are based in Academy (former maintained) schools. When a school converts to become an Academy, they are no longer able to draw on the Facilities Agreement funding, unless they arrange a separate buy-in arrangement. Despite this, there has been no equivalent reduction in the number of funded FTE trade union representatives.
Legal implications The report also provided information about the legislative position in respect of Trade Union duties and activities
Financial implications The total annual budget provision for funding under the Trade Union Facilities Agreement amounts to circa £472k including oncosts. If a decision is taken to reduce the current level of funding, it would result in a saving to the Schools Forum. However, there may be indirect costs incurred by schools, as they may need to release school-based representatives to undertake trade union activity within their school, and provide representation to fulfil the statutory obligations.
Approximately 16% of the total allocated funding was not used during the 2018-19 academic year. This equates to 365.5 days.
County Council's position With effect from 1 April 2018, the County Council withdrew all funding for trade union representatives. From this date, workplace representatives have been required to undertake the role within their service areas, supported by regionally/nationally funded colleagues.
Members discussed the information provided and the pros and cons of the current arrangements and the possible options for changing the level of support provided for the facilities time agreement. As the views expressed by members were split, the Working Group recommended that the possible options for this de-delegation were presented to schools as part of the annual consultation.
The Working Group: a) Noted the report and the information about the updated Trade Union Facilities Agreement; b) Supported Trade Union Facilities options being presented in the 2020/21 de- delegation consultations with schools.
3. Schools Budget Outturn Report 2018/19 The Overall Schools Budget outturn position for 2018/19 shows an overspend of some £1.7m. The overspend was mainly attributable to the ongoing overspend in the High Needs Block, which was partially offset by underspends in other funding blocks.
Information was provided on all funding blocks, and a copy of the full Schools Budget Outturn Report 2018/19 is attached at Appendix A.
The final Schools Block position is set out below:
Schools Block 18/19 Budget Actual Variance £ £ £ Schools Block 624,392,538 610,760,983 -13,631,555 Total CSSB 5,984,722 5,950,362 -34,360 Growth fund 1,300,000 1,079,694 -220,306
Rate Refunds -523,177 -523,177 DSG grant -631,676,291 -619,612,512 12,063,779 Total 0 -2,344,649 -2,344,650
Further information on the individual budget lines and around central expenditure and on the position of Reserves and Provisions at 31 March 2019
The Working Group a) Noted the report and the 2018/19 Schools Budget final financial outturn position.
4. School Balances and Clawback 2018/19 The final outturn position against schools delegated budgets at 31 March 2019 is an overspend of £1.409m. This means that school balances have decreased by £1.409m in 2018/19, to a total of £42.741m.
Information was provided showing analysis of school balances by phase at the end of the financial year 2018/19, and a copy of the full Schools Balances and Clawback Report 2018/19, including details of individual school balances, is provided at Appendix B.
It was noted that the overall number of schools in a deficit budget position at 31 March 2019 had reduced to 39, from 47 a year earlier.
Application of Clawback at 31 March 2019 and 2019/20 policy It was noted that the calculation of clawback liability at 31 March 2019 indicated that only 6 schools were at risk of clawback, totalling circa £11k and 2 primary schools had submitted appeals.
Members considered whether to suspend the application of clawback at 31 March 2019, but the vast majority of members felt that that a principle was at stake and the no blanket exemption should be applied.
The Working Group therefore went on to consider appeals submitted by 2 primary schools, as follows:
Clawback Appeal 1 An aided primary school appealed against clawback on the grounds of needing to hold funding to ensure that they had sufficient funding to make the Governors 10% contribution to building projects on the school site.
The Working Group held an informal vote and supported this appeal by 14 votes to 8.
Clawback Appeal 2 A primary school appealed against the application of clawback on the grounds that a substantial allocation was made to the school late in the financial year. This allocation was not automatically discounted from the clawback calculation, as the school had been notified of the funding before the allocation was made
The Working Group held an informal vote and supported this appeal by 13 votes to 9.
Members supported a continuation of the current school balances and policy at 31 March 2020.
The Working Group: a) Noted the report; b) Noted the overall position of school balances at 31 March 2019 and the individual school level information provided in the report; c) Recommended that there should be no general suspension of clawback at 31 March 2019; d) Recommended that the 2 primary school appeals should be supported and therefore no clawback should be applied to these 2 schools; e) Recommended that there should be no change to the Schools Forum's school balances and clawback arrangements to be applied at 31 March 2020.
5. Schools Forum Annual report 2018/19 Each year the Schools Forum publishes an annual report setting out items of business in which the Forum has been involved.
A draft Forum Annual Report for 2018/19 was provided for the Working Group and a copy is attached at Appendix C.
The Working Group: a) Noted the report; b) Recommend to the Schools Forum that the 2018/19 Annual Report be approved for publication.
6. High Needs Block Provision Task and Finish Group Andrew Good provided a verbal update on the work of the HNB Provision Task and Finish Group.
It was noted that the Group, involving a number of LCC Heads of Service and the Chair of the HNB Working Group had met on several occasions and devised a number of proposals, many based a detailed analysis of data, which had not been available previously. Examples of best practice both locally and nationally had also been assessed to inform the group's proposals.
The internal LCC approval process for the group's report and recommendations was set out and it was confirmed that the report would be shared with the Forum.
The Working Group: a) Noted the update; b) Welcomed the fact that the report would be shared with the Forum in due course.
7. Notional SEN Proposals 2020/21 As part of the ongoing review of High Needs Block expenditure, the LA has formulated a possible simplification to the notional SEN calculation.
The primary principles around the proposal were to ensure that all of the AWPU calculation were available as a basic entitlement for any pupil regardless of need, and to simplify the calculation.
The report provided more detail on the complexity of the calculation, including examples, the background to the current situation, and Lancashire's compassion to national position.
It was noted that the impact of the proposals would be limited and would marginally affect the allocation to schools, where the uplift funding where provided to assist schools meeting their £4,000 Core funding and £6,000 Additional Support funding (Elements 1 and 2) for pupils with High Needs (with E+ EHC Plans) that are being educated in mainstream schools.
It was confirmed that this proposal would not change the actual AWPU funding levels allocated to every pupil.
In order to implement a change to the funding formula from April 2020, a consultation with all schools and academies would be needed.
Many members commented that they would welcome the removal of 'notional SEN' entirely as it did not actually generate any income and caused confusion for schools and parents and it was noted that the DfE were considering this separately.
The Working Group: a) Noted the report; b) Supported the issuing of a consultation to simplify the notional SEN calculation.
8. Teachers’ Pension Scheme (TPS) from September 2019 Previous reports to the Forum have referred to the increase in the employer contribution rate of the Teachers’ Pension Scheme (TPS) from 16.4% to 23.6% that will be introduced from September 2019.
On 10 April 2019, DfE published information and confirmed that they would be funding maintained schools and academies for TPS increase in 2019 to 2020.
Further details of the allocation methodology and funding rates were provided in the report, including information about a Supplementary Fund that schools will be able to apply to if their grant allocation falls short of their actual pension cost.
A notification has been posted on the Schools Portal to alert schools to the announcement.
The Working Group: a) Noted the report.
9. PE and sport premium funding for 2019/20 Following a number of enquiries from schools, the DfE have confirmed that the £320m PE and sport premium will continue in the 2019/20 academic year.
The DfE have indicated that they will publish allocations and guidance later in the year.
The Working Group a) Noted the report.
10. Schools Financial Value Standard (SFVS) 2018/19 and 2019/20 SFVS is a statutory requirement for all maintained schools and currently consists of 25 questions which governing bodies must formally discuss annually with the head teacher and senior staff.
Each year the Chief Finance Officer is required to report to the DfE the number of eligible schools which have failed to submit their return along with confirmation that there is a system of audit in place for schools which gives adequate assurance over their standards of financial management and the regularity and probity of their spending.
Due to the number of outstanding claims at 31 March in previous years the Forum introduced sanctions for none compliance. This included: o Reminder letter to schools yet to submit (copy to COG) mid-April each year o Schools which have still to submit their return by 30 April will receive a pre-warning notice giving them three weeks to 21 May in which to comply. o Schools which fail to meet this deadline will receive a formal warning notice.
2018/19 Returns The above policy was again applied to the 2018/19. All returns have been received without the need for a pre-warning notice. The SFVS assurance certificate showing 100% returns compliance has been signed by Angie Ridgwell, Chief Executive of the County Council and returned to the DfE.
Analysis of Returns As per DfE guidance the local authority uses schools’ SFVS returns to inform their programme of financial assessment and audit.
SFVS 2019/20 For 2019/20, the DfE are updating the SFVS. The tool can be used to identify possible areas for change to ensure that resources are being used to support high-quality teaching and the best education outcomes for pupils and is in two parts:
A checklist, which asks a number of questions of governing bodies in six areas of resource management to provide assurance that the school is managing its resources effectively (similar to the current SFVS); A dashboard, which shows how a school's data compares to thresholds on a range of statistics that have been identified as indicators for good resource management and outcomes.
In order to support school leaders with the new requirements the Schools Financial Services team (SFS) are planning a series of briefings throughout the county late summer term and early autumn term. (It was noted that a number of these sessions are now fully booked and further sessions are planned for the autumn term). To provide consistent messages and guidance the sessions are intended for headteachers, governors and business managers to attend together and will focus on: o the requirements of the new Schools Financial Value Standard 2019/20; o the data used to complete the new checklist and dashboard; o how to use the results from the dashboard; o the respective roles and responsibilities of Governors and School Staff in completing the Schools Financial Value Standard; o where to access additional support and guidance.
As a traded service SFS will need to charge for these sessions. However, the Forum was asked to consider the approval the previous policy whereby governor attendance is paid for by the Forum for schools which purchase the annual governor services training programme
The Working Group: a) Noted the report; b) Supported the continuation of the current returns timescale and sanctions policy; c) Supported the proposed funding arrangements for governors attending the briefing sessions; d) Suggested that information about the new SFVS arrangements could be highlighted via the Chairs' conferences.
11. Invoices 'on approval' for on-line resources Internal Audit have again been alerted to invoices being sent to schools 'on approval' in respect of a yearly subscription providing access to on-line resources.
Members were reminded to ensure that they are aware that internal controls should apply which generally means that only the Headteacher should be entering into any sort of agreements with suppliers, or at least the Headteacher and SBM should be aware if school staff wish to accept something on approval. Schools should also be aware to check the small print on any contracts that are entered into.
Information had been posted on the Schools portal to alert al school to this issue.
The Working Group: a) Noted the report.

Executive Summary
This report provides the Working Groups with details of the 2018/19 Schools Budget final financial outturn position, in relation to the each funding block.
Recommendations
The Working Group is asked to: a) Note the report and the 2018/19 Schools Budget final financial outturn position; b) Express any views in relation to each funding block outturn position for 2018/19.
1 Background This report provides information on the Schools Budget outturn position for 2018/19.
The Overall Schools Budget outturn position for 2018/19 shows an overspend of some £1.7m. The overspend was mainly attributable to the ongoing overspend in the High Needs Block, which was partially offset by underspends in other funding blocks. The following tables provide further details of each funding block.
High Needs Block
High Needs Block 18/19 Budget Actual Variance £ £ £ Total High Needs Block 77,720,482 81,883,617 4,163,135 Total Commissioned Services 25,252,418 29,266,942 4,014,524 Exclusions -650,832 -650,832

In total the High Needs Block (HNB) showed a circa £5.0m overspend in 2018/19. Further information is provided below:
Total High Needs Block This element of the HNB expenditure relates to funding delegated to schools and ended the year with a circa £4m overspend.
Total Commissioned Services The commissioned services expenditure is accounted for under central items, and further information on the circa £4m overspend is provided in the central items section below and in the HNB monitoring data provided at Appendix A.
Exclusions When a child is permanently excluded, the excluding school must pay a charge for the exclusion calculated using the average pupil led funding factors for the school. During 2018/19, circa £0.7m was recouped for exclusions from mainstream schools and academies. This funding is utilised as a contribution to the ongoing costs of education the excluded pupils in PRUs, alternative provision, or at other mainstream establishments. No budget line is included for exclusion income when the Schools Budget is being set.
Please note the £0.7m is half that of previous years (£1.3m in 17/18), due to the change in guidance from the ESFA, with the effect that more funding than previously is being retained in excluding mainstream schools and thereby increasing the overspend on excluded pupils within the high needs block.
DSG grant DSG grant for the HNB in 2018/19 was circa £2.6m above the budgeted figure due to the additional High Needs allocations provided by the DfE to assist with HNB budget pressures for 2018/19 and 2019/20.

Schools Block Delegated Schools Block expenditure was some £13.6m below the original budget due to schools transferring to academy status.
Total Central Schools Services Block (CSSB) The CSSB outturn position was a £34K surplus at 31 March 2019. Further details are provided in the CSSB section below.
Growth fund Actual growth fund expenditure was circa £220k below budget due to fewer pupils being supported in basic needs growth than was forecast.
Rate Refunds Just over £0.5m income was received into the Schools Block in 2018/19 from rateable value appeals undertaken by the LCC Estates team. In accordance with the Forum's policy this is the net figure after the annual payment to facilitate rateable value challenges on school premises has been paid. As per previous reports to the Forum, the 2018/19 charge for the Estates Service was £98,000. No budget line is included for rate refund income when the Schools Budget is being set.
DSG grant DSG Grant income for the Schools Block was circa £12m below budget, again caused by adjustments in relation to schools becoming academies.

Early Years Block
Early Years Block Budget Actual Variance £ £ £ Maintained Sector 20,061,610 19,808,887 -252,723 PVI Providers 52,708,056 56,118,419 3,410,363 Early Years Pupil Premium 769,670 645,018 -124,652 Disability Access Fund 257,685 151,905 -105,780 Total Commissioned Services 359,140 202,310 -156,830
DSG grant -74,156,161 -77,848,187 -3,692,026 Total 0 -921,648 -921,648 The Early Years Block outturn position for 2018/19 showed a circa £0.9m underspend.
Further information is provided below. In considering the information, it should be remembered that the Early Years element of the DSG is calculated on the basis of January counts across two years, as shown below in relation to the ESFA Operational Guide for 2018/19:
December 2017 Publication of initial early years block allocations Summer 2018 Early years block updated for January 2018 early years pupil numbers Summer 2019 Early years block updated for January 2019 early years pupil numbers (pro rata seven twelfths, as this relates only to the period September 2018 to March 2019)
This means that the final update for the 2018/19 Early Years Block has not yet been received. When the update is received, scheduled for July 2019, it will revise the DSG grant income based on the actual provision made. As the current budget position shows an overall underspend, where the LA has distributed less than the estimated income, it is forecast that DSG income in the final EYB update will reduce.
Members will recall that the 2017/18 EYB outturn item reported a circa £0.8m overspend at 31 March 2018, so Early Years funding is virtually net nil across the last 2 financial years, which is broadly in line with expectations due to the funding mechanism within this Block.
Maintained Sector Early Years Block expenditure, relating to maintained providers underspent by circa £250k to 31 March 2019, meaning that demand was marginally below budgeted provision.
PVI Providers The PVI outturn was circa £3.4m above budget due to a significant increase in provision over the estimated budget.
Early Years Pupil Premium This budget line was circa £120k below budget.
Disability Access Fund
4
This budget line was circa £105k below budget.
Total Commissioned Services Commissioned Services in the Early Years Block relates to the Inclusion Fund and expenditure was circa £150k below budget.
DSG grant DSG grant income for the Early Yeas Block was circa £3.7m above the estimated budget, largely due to increased income for higher provision in the PVI sector, before the final EYB DSG update is received in July 2019.

Commentary As can be seen, the total Central Expenditure year end position was an overspend of approximately £3.6m. A commentary on some of the key variances from the 2018/19 budget are set out below. Numbers corresponded to the reference in the 'Notes' column in the table above.
1 Early Intervention Underspends from previous years cover the 2018/19 overspend.
2 PFI Sixth Form/Special/Nursery
6
Due to historic amendments along with changes through benchmarking and DfE funding has meant that PFI costs have been budgeted for on a pessimistic basis resulting in underspends. Protocols have been improved that will reduce the budget accordingly removing the underspends in future years.
3 Growth Fund Actual growth fund expenditure in 2018/19 was marginally below the revised budget due to fewer pupils being supported in basic needs growth than was forecast.
4 Commissioned Alternative Provision Services Previously this budget was £2m with an in year spend last year of £3.1m. LCC had been tasked to reduce this expenditure down from £3.1 to £1m in 2018/19. Whilst some savings have been made the budget has overspent by £324k.
5 Hospital Provision This budget has closed with an overspend of £52k which is due to overspend on staffing.
6 Independent Hospital Provision Previously this expenditure was included hence hidden within the "Out of County" expenditure. This expenditure is now being shown independently for transparency. In addition the DfE are looking specifically at the funding of provision/expenditure on Hospital education expenditure. Currently the budget is still shown under "Out County".
7 Education in Residential Homes Previously this expenditure was included hence hidden within the "Commissioned Alternative Provision services" expenditure. This expenditure on the education element for children in residential homes is now being shown independently for transparency. Currently the budget is still shown under "Alternative Provision".
8 Out County - Specialist provision places This overspend of £3.1m is due in the main to the Inclusion Service being unable to obtain capacity within maintained provision to cope with an increasing number of pupils requiring high needs placement. As provision has not been able to be sourced within the authority's schools more Independent Non-Maintained placements have had to be commissioned causing additional expenditure.
9 SEND Specialised Equipment The overspend of £17K was due to both an increase in equipment requirements for individuals along with a change in the supplier whose prices are increasing compared to previous years. This area is likely to increase further over the next 12 months
10 SEND Inclusion Projects The service underspent on the projects by £51k to try to compensate towards other areas of overspends.
11 SEND Teachers & Support
7
The £81k underspend was generally due to staff vacancies throughout the year. The service are presently in the process of recruiting.
12 Support for Vulnerable Pupils - SI Having reviewed budgets it has been found that this has become a recurrent underspend due to LCC seeking to reduce staffing subsequent to the initial recharge being set.
Further details about the adjustments made to the budget in year and more information about the service provision under each budget heading have been previously shared with the Forum and are provided at Appendix B for ease of reference. The information on service provision relates to the 'narrative' numbers on the table.
Overall Schools Budget 2018/19 – Use of DSG Reserves Taking into account the outturn position across all funding blocks at 31 March 2019, the Schools Budget overspend by circa £1.7m, which was met from DSG Reserves. More information on the year end reserves is provided in the next section.

Reserves and Provisions A number of earmarked reserves and provisions are maintained by the Authority for specific purposes. As at 31 March 2019 these amounted to a total of £62.661m for Schools, as set out in the table below:

Commentary The Total Schools Reserves and Provisions at 31 March 2019 was £62.661m, down from £65.063m at 31 March 2018, a reduction of some £2.4m. Overall reserves have fallen significantly in recent years, having been some £89.890 at March 2015.
Further information is provided below in connection to the 2018/19 movement in Schools Reserves and Provisions:
1. Dedicated Schools Grant Reserve The DSG reserve fell by over -£1.6m in 2018/19 to £12.744m. This was largely due to the ongoing overspend in the High Needs Block, which was partially offset by transfers and underspends in other funding blocks.
2. Schools in Financial Difficulty Reserve At 31 March 2019 the Schools in Financial Difficulty Reserve (SIFD) stood at £5.526m, an increase of £744k from the previous year. This was accumulated as follows: 2017/18 funding clawback from schools; a 2018/19 SIFD in year underspend;
which was partially reduced by: the deficit balance at a school converting to an academy.
3. De-delegation Reserve The de-delegation reserve stands at £0.479m at 31 March 2019. There was no in year movement on this reserve.
4. Supply Reimbursement This reserve closed 2018/19 at £1.171m, some £0.081m lower than the previous year. In year monitoring showed that this reserve was on track to break even for much of the year, but significant year end claims from a small number of schools relating to the previous financial year were processed after consideration of business cases surrounding the particular circumstances involved.
5. School Reserves School reserves closed the year at £42.741. The School Balances and Clawback report elsewhere on the agenda provides further information this reserve and on individual school reserves.

Name of Group: High Needs / Early Years / Schools Block Working Groups
Date of Meeting: 11, 13 and 20 June 2019
Item No: 7 Title of Item: School Balances and Clawback 2018/19
Annex A and B refer
Executive Summary
This report provides information on the 2018/19 outturn position on school balances and seeks views about the school balances and clawback arrangements.
Recommendations
The Working Group is asked to: a) Note the report; b) Note the overall position of school balances at 31 March 2019 and the individual school level information provided in the report; c) Consider the application of clawback at 31 March 2019; d) Express any views about the school balances and clawback arrangements to be applied at 31 March 2020.
Background
School Balances Outturn 2018/19 This report sets out the year end position of schools' delegated budgets at 31 March 2019.
The final outturn position against schools delegated budgets at 31 March 2019 is an overspend of £1.409m. This means that school balances have decreased by £1.409m in 2018/19, to a total of £42.741m. The tables below show analysis of school balances by phase at the end of the financial year 2018/19.
2018/19 School Balances - In-Year Movement of Balances by Phase

The outturn position shows a reduction in the aggregate level of school balances at 31 March 2019 to £42.741m. The continued reductions in the level of aggregate balances held by schools is indicative of the ongoing pressure on school funding. Dedicated Schools Grant (DSG) income has, for a number of years, been cash flat, or has not kept pace with inflation. Further reductions in the overall level of balances in the nursery and secondary school sectors reflects the significant financial challenges confronting these phases and the substantial reduction in the overall level of balances in the special school sector is also symptomatic of the savings that are required in the High Needs Block of the Dedicated Schools Grant.

271 schools (46%) operated an in year deficit in 2018/19, spending funding from reserves. The significant numbers of schools, across all phases, using reserves in order to balance their budgets, is a further demonstration of the persistent financial pressures in the school sector. Within the nursery and special school sectors, more than half the schools within each phase spent more than their income in year.
The number of schools operating in year deficits in 2018/19 compares to 282 in 2017/18 and 368 in 2016/17.

39 schools ended the 2018/19 financial year in deficit, including schools from all sectors. The number of schools in deficit at 31 March 2019 has reduced from 47 schools a year earlier. Throughout the year, the County Council has provided significant targeted support and enhanced monitoring and early warning around Schools in Financial Difficulty, and this, along with the commitment of individual school leaders, has contributed to this reduction in the number of schools in deficit. However, the financial environment for schools remains extremely difficult, with a number of key challenges continuing across all school sectors.
A comparison showing the number of schools in deficit in recent years is provided below:

The graph demonstrates the trend in aggregate school balances over recent years. Balances at 31 March 2019 are at their lowest level since 2009/10 and show a continued decline in aggregate school balances, from a peak in 2014/15, as schools utilise their reserves to set balanced budgets.
To provide context for the total school balances, the current authority guideline for schools is to have reserves equating to 12% of their total Combined Financial reporting (CFR) income or a minimum of £60,000. This is to ensure that individual schools can withstand potential financial risks and financial stresses. If all Lancashire schools held the guideline balance, the total balance would have been circa £102m, compared to the actual balances held of circa £43m.
School Closures/Academy Conversions During 2018/19, there were nine academy conversions in Lancashire: 5 primary schools converted with surplus balances, and took their balance with them, totalling circa £367k; 3 secondary schools converted with surplus balances, and took their balances with them, totalling circa £395k; 1 secondary school converted with a deficit of circa -£160k and as a sponsored academy.
Adjustments for these conversions are included in the school balance figures provided above.
Individual School Balances Attached at Annex A are details about the movement in balances at an individual school level in 2018/19. As previously requested by the Forum, in addition to the year- end balance by school, information is included in this annex setting out:
Year-end balance adjusted for approved exemptions; Adjusted balance as a % of CFR income; Adjusted balance per pupil.
Clawback Arrangements 2018/19 Details of the 2018/19 School Balances and Clawback scheme, approved by the Forum in July 2018, are provided at Annex B.
The arrangements for 2018/19 remained largely unchanged from those that applied in 2017/18, subject to the removal of the clawback exemption for 'Existing capital bonds will be honoured until project completion', as all of the existing capital bonds had reached completion.
In addition, during discussions about the introduction of a new Government grant at the October 2018 meeting, the Schools Forum agreed that the 'Free school meals supplementary grant' would be treated as a 'late allocation' and be exempt from clawback at 31 March 2019.
In accordance with the School Balances and Clawback policy agreed by the Forum for 2018/19, and following previous consideration of a business case for an individual school, clawback exemptions have been applied at 2 schools. No global exemptions, for example for late allocations issued by the LA, were necessary at 31 March 2019.
Application of Clawback at 31 March 2019 Calculation of clawback liability at 31 March 2019 indicates that 6 schools are at risk of clawback, totalling circa £11k. Where necessary, the funding liable for clawback has been reduced to take account of any FSM supplementary grant allocations that would impact on the calculations, deemed by the Forum to be 'late allocations' for clawback purposes.
Schools at risk of clawback are from across all school phases, except the secondary school sector, as shown in the table below:
No of schools at Total funding at Phase risk of clawback risk of clawback (£) Nursery 1 335 Primary 2 5,395 Secondary 0 0 Special 2 4,150 Short Stay 1 743 Total 6 10,623
All the schools identified are liable at the 50% rate of clawback for schools above the balances threshold for the first time.
Correspondence has been issued to the schools to alert them of their clawback liability and representations have been received from 2 schools. Further information is provided below:
Clawback Appeal 1 Correspondence has been received from an aided primary school appealing against the application of clawback.
The school is currently undergoing a major refurbishment. A new KS2 block has been built on the school playing field, and a new school yard is scheduled to be built over the summer. The planning of the new school building is also likely to make the school a split site going forward.
Once the junior children have moved out of the main school building this will need to be totally refurbished. This refurbishment work will be phased, but includes: a roof replaced; the replacement of the heating distribution system; the classrooms need to be re-modelled.
The total costs of all these works is in excess of £2m and, as an aided school, the governors will need to find the 10% contribution.
The governors of the school have made a conscious decision to hold back on spending to ensure that the building work can take place with their necessary contribution and are planning for the additional costs that will be incurred when running two separate buildings.
The school is also planning to implement in year savings of around £50k in 2019/20 to assist with budget sustainability going forward and are currently forecasting a budget deficit by 31 March 2022.
In such circumstances the school has asked that clawback is not applied.
Clawback Appeal 2 Contact has also been received from another primary school requesting that clawback should not be applied.
The Business Manager indicated that at the governors meeting in March 2019, governors decided not to proceed with some planned renovation work at the school due to a forecast in year deficit and this was compounded by a late recharge to the school of circa £25k in relation to the nursery attached to the school. This pushed the school's year end position into a clawback situation.
The school indicated that they did not receive any notification of the recharge amount before it appeared on their oracle print on 27 March 2019.
However, the LA did communicate with the school about the recharge amounts in February 2019.
Possible Suspension of Clawback at 31 March 2019 If the Forum supported the 2 clawback appeals, this would approximately halve the aggregate clawback level to just over £5k.
Even if the appeals were not supported, the level of funding at risk of clawback at 31 March 2019 is relatively small, with each of the schools identified only marginally above their balances threshold in each case. Any clawback income will not make a meaningful contribution to reserves or other possible projects.
As members will be aware, the major concern relating to school balances is now around supporting schools in or heading towards a deficit budget position, rather than schools holding excess balances. It is worth noting that at least one school at risk of clawback at 31 March 2019 is forecasting a swing into financial difficulty as early as March 2020.
Under such circumstances, the Forum may wish to suspend the application of clawback at 31 March 2019, which may be perceived as a good will gesture in recognition of the continued financial constraints across the school sector.
Clawback 2017/18 No specific projects for the use of the funding clawed back at 31 March 2018 were proposed during 2018/19 and, as previously agreed by the Forum, the unallocated funding of circa £203k, was transferred to the Schools in Financial Difficulty Reserve at 31 March 2019.
School Balances and Clawback Policy 2019/20 The DfE/ESFA have not announced any new legislative or guidance updates that will impact on the Forum's decisions around schools balances and clawback for 2019/20 and the LA has no specific proposals for changes to the current policy for the Forum's consideration.
Depending on the Forum's views around the suspension of clawback at 31 March 2019, members may be minded to suspend clawback at 31 March 2020, or may prefer to leave the current school balances and clawback policy in place for 2019/20 and to consider possible clawback suspension options when the 2019/20 outturn position is available.
Alternatively, if Forum agree to apply clawback at 31 March 2019 in full, then members may prefer to maintain this policy for 31 March 2020. Annex A

School Balances and Clawback Guidance 2018/19
This guidance applies to balances at 31 March 2019
Guideline Balances
The Authority’s current maximum guideline balance is:
12% of Consistent Financial reporting (CFR) income for all phases of maintained school (It is suggested that the 12% guideline figure is not seen as a target);
A £60,000 minimum balance threshold will be applied.
Clawback of "excess balances"
The Authority's clawback arrangements are:
A clawback rate of 50% is to be applied to any balance above guideline in the first year a school exceeds the guideline (after adjusting for exemptions). ;
A clawback rate of 100% is to be applied to any balance in excess of guideline where the guideline has been breached for two or more consecutive years (after adjusting for exemptions).
Exemptions from clawback
The Authority shall make the following deductions from the school's actual balance before applying clawback:
Funds accumulated by schools where there is a contractual agreement, as part of a grant allocation or dual use agreement, for facilities to be replaced on a fixed basis (i.e. an all weather pitch) will continue to be exempt from clawback. Conditions of this exclusion are: o The amount excluded cannot exceed the total cost of replacing the facility committed in the contract/agreement; o The exclusion will only be allowed for a period equivalent to the stated replacement timetable for the facility and will be subject to retrospective clawback if no replacement is funded or if the replacement is at a lower value than estimated; o Schools will be required to submit relevant supporting documentation relating to the terms of the contract or grant, including evidence of replacement conditions and also estimated costs.
Any funding allocated on an academic year basis to schools by the DfE or other Government department will have 5/12 this exempt from clawback. Schools will be required to submit relevant supporting documentation relating to the government allocation, including appropriate evidence of distribution timescales; Funding allocations that are notified to schools late in the financial year, where schools could not reasonably have considered the allocation in their financial planning for the year. Late allocations are defined as allocations notified to schools after 1 January each financial year. Allocations that are notified to schools before the 1st January of the financial year, but where the funding is received at a later date, would not qualify under this exemption;
Devolved Formula Capital (DFC) allocations, delegated to non-aided schools for the first time from September 2017 (for accounting purposes), are specifically excluded from the clawback calculation. Schools are asked to ensure that the relevant capital accounting codes are used for DFC income and expenditure, to guarantee that this funding is identifiable and able to be excluded from year end revenue balances and the clawback calculation;
No further clawback exemptions or new capital bonds will be allowed.
What is Consistent Financial Reporting (CFR) Income?
CFR Income is defined by the Department for Education in the consistent financial reporting (CFR) framework https://www.gov.uk/guidance/consistent-financial-reporting-framework-cfr
You will have seen your CFR income on several documents but you may not have known it by this description.
You will have seen it on:
Your financial outturn statement - it is the total line labelled "Revenue Income". For most schools this will be the sum of lines I01 to I13 on the outturn statement but under the CFR framework it will include lines not used by most schools and is the sum of lines categorised as I01 to I18. o This is the figure that will be used to calculate the guideline but as funding and income will change during the year this figure will not be known until the outturn statements have been produced following the end of the financial year. o It does not include "Capital Income" codes CI01-CI04
On your submitted income and expenditure form – it is the total line labelled "Total In Year Resources Available" this is the sum of your "Total Funding" and your "Total Additional School Income", it does not include any balances brought forward. o This is not used to calculate the guideline but it is your estimate of your CFR income and may be used as your estimate of the guideline, you must note if you revise you estimates of income in the year then you would need to revise your estimate of the guideline figure.

Lancashire Schools Forum
Annual Report 2018/19 April 2018 - March 2019
The Lancashire Schools Forum met on four occasions in the financial year 2018/19 and has considered a variety of reports and presentations on school funding and finance related matters. This annual report sets out some of the significant issues dealt with by the Forum.
Schools Budget 2019/20 Advising on the Schools Budget is a crucial responsibility of the Forum. The 2019/20 budget setting process was again a challenging one due to the continued financial pressures across the whole of the school sector. The key headlines for 2019/20 included:
2019/20 High Needs Block: A revised methodology for the number of Commissioned Place in 2019/20 was agreed as a basis for the budget; Saving proposals for special schools, PRUs and FE colleges were agreed; Proposals for the development of inclusion hubs will continue, to be initially funded from existing budgets and school contributions ahead of possible de-delegation proposals in 2020/21; Original 2019/20 Schools Budget proposals included an option to devalue the Weighted Pupil Number (WPN) rate from the new academic year 2019/20. However, at the recommendation of the Forum, the further use of Dedicated Schools Grant (DSG) reserves, to the value of circa £1.2m, was agreed to prevent the need to reduce WPN rates in 2019/20 and protect vulnerable pupils across all providers.
2019/20 Schools Block: The National Funding Formula (NFF) Methodology continues to apply in 2019/20 and was implemented in full, including revised Minimum Pupil Funding (MPF) levels; The 2019/20 gains cap was set at +1.5% against 2018/19 allocations, and the MFG at -1.5% against 2018/19 allocations; Implementation of revised 2019/20 split site proposals and transitional arrangements were agreed; A transfer of 0.5% (£3.7m) from the Schools Block to the High Needs Block was confirmed in order to mitigate the forecast overspend in High Needs Block.
2019/20 Early Years Block: The Universal Base Rate for 3 and 4 year olds was set at £4.13 per hour (from £4.09 in 2018/19) and the hourly rate for eligible 2 years olds at £5.00 per hour in 2019/20 (the same rate as 2018/19); Central Government continues to provide ring-fenced supplementary funding for maintained nursery schools in 2019/20; Discretionary supplementary payments continue for the 2019/20 budget but a review will be undertaken over the coming year.
2019/20 Central School Services Block: Savings totalling circa £0.4m were identified as a contribution to the High Needs Block overspend.
Fighting Lancashire's Corner Difficult budget decisions were taken to ensure that 2019/20 Schools Budget in Lancashire was allocated from the funding envelope provided by the Dedicated Schools Grant (DSG) allocations. However it was recognised that schools are facing considerable cost pressures. The Schools Forum and the County Council have therefore made a number of representations to central government during the course of year, and participated in national research projects and contributed to Government evidence gathering. This has included:
Corresponding with Government Ministers to make a case for additional Early Years Block funding for Lancashire, as we currently receive the lowest level of funding allocation nationally; Participated in a Local Government Association (LGA) national research project about High Needs Block funding, to better understand the reasons for the pressure in this block and to lobby for additional resources. This project perhaps contributed to Government decisions to make additional funding available for high needs in both 2018/19 and 2019/20. Lancashire was allocated an extra £2.6m in both years; Evidence about the impact of funding reductions on combined budget resources in Lancashire have been channelled to the DfE to feed into considerations about the Government's comprehensive spending review.
Service De-delegations 2019/20 Regulations require that the Forum is responsible for deciding which services should be de- delegated each year. In October 2018, the Forum considered a number of de-delegation proposals. Primary and secondary members agreed by phase that a number of services would be de-delegated for the 2019/20 financial year. This means that for primary and secondary schools (but not academies) services will be provided centrally. These services are:
Staff costs – Public Duties/Suspensions. This de-delegation incorporates reimbursement to schools for staff costs associated with public duties and suspensions; Museum Service - Primary Schools Only. Provides funding for the work the museum service undertakes for primary schools to help meet the national curriculum and to support wider cultural learning; Support for Schools in Financial Difficulty. This funding allows support to be offered to schools in financial difficulty, which is managed by the School Improvement Challenge Board (SICB) against published eligibility criteria.
Consultation Responses A number of consultations and discussions were held with schools and academies and with representative groups to help shape the budget and savings proposals and de-delegation decisions for 2019/20. The Forum were very grateful for the responses and comments that helped to steer their decisions and recommendations.

Support for Schools in Financial Difficulty Pressure on school budgets across all phases remained a key issue throughout the year. Outturn data relating to 31 March 2018 was reported to Forum in July 2018 and revealed that 47 Lancashire schools (8%) were in a deficit budget situation, which is the highest ever number. Almost 50% of schools used their reserves to set a balanced budget, and aggregate balances held by schools have reduced by £9m over the last 2 years.
In response to the challenging financial environment, the Forum have supported the continued development of the procedures and policies for supporting Schools in Financial Difficulty (SIFD), including:
School Categorisation Approach The School Categorisation Approach is used to monitor the financial health of Lancashire schools, and to target resources, support and alerts. This approach continues to assess financial data on each school and catalogued them into one of four SIFD categories, which are set out below:
Category Description Category 1 Structural deficit beyond recovery, school is financially non- Structural Deficit viable, strategic solutions required Category 2 Schools have significant deficits requiring intensive intervention Significant Deficit and focussed support to recover, or have no agreed recovery plan – pushing boundaries of 3 year timescale Category 3 Incorporates schools burning through reserves, losing Vulnerable Position significant pupil numbers, moving into or on the brink of deficit, or schools that are recovering from more significant financial problems, but where the recovery plan is agreed and is on track - require intervention and monitoring in order to prevent failure in the next 3 years – education, challenge and forecasting support Category 4 No budget issues but continued monitoring of financial No financial issues indicators to confirm ongoing financial health.
Various early warning processes, training support and toolkits have been developed to help support schools in avoiding a deficit budget position or to recover from deficit.
A policy has also been agreed to introduce Notices of Concern (NOC) in Respect of Financial Delegation, for high risk schools. The NOC introduces certain financial restrictions on Governing Bodies.
School Balances and Clawback The Forum reviews the Lancashire school balances and clawback arrangements each year.
In connection with School Balances and Clawback at 31 March 2018, clawback totalling circa £232k was applied to 13 schools.
The Forum agreed that continuation of the existing school balances and clawback arrangements for application at 31 March 2019.
