We urge the Government to require at least 3% of spending of the National Schools Budget for extracurricular activities in secondary schools. We believe this funding could be used to cover costs such as staff overtime or facilities, ensuring access to sport, debating, drama, and music.

Education Secretary
Fund extracurricular activities for children from low income backgrounds
Increase funding for learning support in schools
