Abstract

dc:description.abstract

This 10 000 word report looks at the application of the Norms and Standards for School Funding policy with respect to whether it fulfills its aims of equity and redress. The type, nature and weighting of indicators used in applying this policy at two previously disadvantaged Western Cape secondary schools, which have different socio-economic backgrounds, is examined through a review of the funding allocation received by these two schools.
