The most striking thing about this year's Autumn Budget wasn't what was announced for education.

It was what wasn't.

While there were some welcome measures around PE, apprenticeships and AI, many of the biggest questions facing schools and trusts remain unanswered.

📌 How will ongoing SEND pressures be addressed?
📌 What support will be available for workforce costs?
📌 Where will future investment in schools and trusts be focused?

For school business leaders and CFOs, certainty is often just as important as funding. And that's something many may still be waiting for.

We've taken a closer look at what the Autumn Budget means for schools and academy trusts in our latest article:

While the Autumn Budget included investment in PE, apprenticeships and AI, it offered little new clarity on the issues dominating school and trust finance discussions. For many leaders, the biggest takeaway is not what was announced, but the uncertainty that remains.
