Most attend state schools, the central Government decides the budget and dishes it out to LEAs - local education authorities.<BR/>They all spend it differently and have different priorities and there arwe variations in quality, but a school in a deprived area is likely to get better funding.Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02646936995485109020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9020257.post-1137711572995612062006-01-19T22:59:00.000+00:002006-01-19T22:59:00.000+00:00So great of you to pass this along!I printed out t...So great of you to pass this along!<BR/><BR/>I printed out the brands and posted it on my fridge.<BR/><BR/>I'm on the verge of an American education rant, by the way.
