This is in addition to a £350 million to increase per-pupil school budgets in areas with the least fairly distributed funding.
However, there will be a real-terms freeze in schools' overall budgets. Christine Blower, general secretary of the National Union of Teachers, said: "Reductions in education funding have led to cuts in provision such as breakfast and after school clubs, music lessons, SEN support and the Education Maintenance Allowance which helped students stay on in education.
