Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to apply standard normative criteria for judging public sector resource allocation decisions to the rules for determining the distribution by LEAs of budget shares to schools and colleges and for regulating the spending of these budgets by governing bodies. A crucial preliminary issue is the selection of criteria — the criteria used for making such judgements are efficiency, effectiveness, equity, accountability and choice.Keywords
