Legislation around equalities, transparency and accountability requires all schools to publish a direct link from their websites to the Financial Benchmarking and Insights Summary dedicated to their school. The Financial Benchmarking and Insights Summary replaces Benchmarking Report Cards. This change is part of the recent improvements to the DfE’s financial benchmarking services.
