DSG review: Programme of research
To support the Review the Department has commissioned a programme of research from PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) looking at funding for additional educational needs (especially deprivation and low achievement); high-cost pupils (including special educational needs); activity-led funding and area cost issues. The DCSF has also contracted with Serco to carry out further research, building on the PwC work, on modelling an activity-led funding approach to the basic entitlement. Final reports from the PwC research can be found here.
