🚨 Reform the National Funding Formula 🚨

Previous changes to the NFF have had a disproportionately negative impact on schools in deprived areas.

We're calling for it to be reformed to rebalance funding back towards schools that need it the most.

Reading is a radical act. Every time a child picks up a book, new possibilities open up that were not there before. And it has the biggest positive impact of all factors on children's life chances! Every time you help a kid to read for pleasure, you will change their lives FOREVER. #literacy #books
