Will the Cabinet Secretary outline how much funding the Welsh Government gave GwE in 2015-16, 2016-17, 2017-18?
Further to my response in December, the information requested is provided by GwE on their website. GwE’s accounts, including details of the grant funding spent, are available for 2015-16 and 2016-17 within the 2016-17 report below:

The Welsh Government made available a total of £53.9million to GwE in 2017-18. This is the total amount of funding, including elements delegated to schools from the Education Improvement Grant for Schools and the Pupil Development Grant.
The GwE accounts for 2017-18 are closed and will be published in due course.
