DfE collects data on the use of School Condition Allocation (SCA) and Basic Need funding by responsible bodies.
Spending on completed projects (those that reach practical completion) can be logged on this portal throughout the year. You submit your yearly return during an eight-week window each year, along with a short survey.
The 2024 survey round will open for submission on the 22nd April. It will collect data on projects completed during the 23-24 financial year. Submission is required by the end of the 14th June.
Data can only be submitted using the online portal and copies of the data sent by email will not be accepted.
The portal is open all year round. You can enter, edit and delete project data throughout the year, ready for submission when the next survey window opens. During the survey window, we ask you to submit your return. At this point we collect the data on all the completed projects, which you will no longer be able to change. Any projects without a completion date will not form part of the return and can still be edited or deleted. We recommend that you enter the spend data for a project as it completes, so you will not be over-burdened entering data for multiple projects during the survey window.
The survey window for the 2024 collection will open on the 22nd April and close on the 14th June.
If you upload your project data using the provided template, you should upload it by the 7th June to allow time for us to manually import your data into the portal, ready for submission.
