This Circular from the Welsh Assembly Government provides guidance to local education authorities (LEAs) on the Better Schools Fund programme for 2008-09.

It describes the Activity and Priority Areas which are eligible for grant support within the programme, the management arrangements for the programme and the information which LEAs should provide. It also gives details of grant allocations for each LEA and the arrangements for the claiming and payment of grant.

The Circular also asks LEAs to submit formal spending plans for Assembly approval and provides details on each Activity and Priority Area to inform the preparation, monitoring and delivery of those plans.
