Maintained schools
Maintained schools direct funding to EDEAS at the start of each financial year through what is known as the de-delegation budget, which funds a de-delegated funded core offer. Maintained schools can purchase further support and packages.
EYFS attached to maintained schools
EYFS settings attached to maintained schools receive part of EDEAS’ de-delegated funded core offer. That being access to EDEAS clinics and our webinar training programme. For all further support EYFS attached to maintained schools are required to purchase EDEAS’ time.
Academies and and all other settings
Academies and all other settings are required to invest in all EDEAS’ support.
