In light of the recent changes announced by the Education and Skills Funding Agency (ESFA), the 精品SM在线影片 (精品SM在线影片) wishes to express its support for the transition of ESFA鈥檚 functions into the Department for Education (DfE).
From 1 October 2024, the ESFA鈥檚 Schools Financial Support and Oversight (SFSO) teams will move to Regions Group, ahead of the new Regional Improvement Teams launch by January 2025. The processing and allocation of funding will continue as usual until the end of the financial year before transitioning into the DfE.

The ESFA has played an important role in delivering essential services, and we recognise the positive impact of their work. As this transition moves forward, we will maintain close communication with our members to ensure their needs and concerns are addressed. We are committed to working collaboratively with the DfE to ensure the effective continuation of services and to gather feedback from schools and trusts as they adjust to these changes.

We hopethis consolidation will simplify things by providing a single point of contact. The ESFA has done important work, and while we recognise the value they've brought, this transition marks a positive step forward for everyone involved."
As we move through this change, our priority remains supporting you, our members, and the wider governance community. We鈥檒l continue to listen to your feedback and collaborate with the DfE to ensure everything runs smoothly. Ultimately, we鈥檙e here to make sure this process benefits you and makes your work a little easier."
