[eal-bilingual] Delegation to schools

Does this not mean though, that schools who do not require EMAG funding,
still received monies devolved to them?? So a school with 30 bilingual
children has to pay for services etc. whilst the school with none has,
essentially, extra money. 
Is there an equality of provision??

Dear colleagues in England,

Please could as many of you as possible respond to this very quick
request with a simple YES or NO direct to my email address
real.public at btinternet.com NOT to the forum?

Aside from individual schools where good working relationships have
yielded positive results, as a whole would you say that delegation of
EMAG funding to schools, rather than funding being retained by central
LEA services, is beneficial for the pupils and for our profession?  On
balance, a simple YES or NO is all I need to get a general picture.

Many thanks
Jonathan Brentnall
