The guidance is for:
local authorities
school leaders
governing bodies and their representatives
It relates to local authority mainstream schools and academies in England.
This guidance sets out the terms and conditions applied to the mainstream schools additional grant (MSAG) allocations and payments to mainstream schools for the financial year beginning April 2023.
This guidance will help local authorities and schools understand how the MSAG is calculated for 2023 to 2024 and how this will be paid to maintained schools and academies.
We have published the MSAG school level allocations which show the total allocation and the first payment amount.
We will make a first payment of MSAG to local authorities in April 2023 and to academies in May 2023. We will make a second payment to local authorities in October 2023 and to academies in November 2023. We will make a further payment of MSAG for new and growing schools in February 2024.
In recognition of the funding cycle for academies, which follows the academic year (rather than the financial year used for local authority maintained schools), academies will receive an additional allocation of the MSAG to cover April to August 2024.
You can find out more about the dedicated schools grant (DSG) settlement for 2023 to 2024.
