Conwy school budget cuts slammed by headteachers

Conwy school budget cuts slammed by headteachers

“This year we foresee that a significant majority of Conwy schools will struggle to set a balanced budget. If they are unable to do so, then they will need to cut costs which will inevitably lead to staff reductions and redundancies.”

Cllr Charlie McCoubrey, leader of Conwy County Borough Council, said: “All councillors at Conwy County Borough Council are fully aware of the funding shortfall that the council faces as a result of national pay awards, inflation, energy and fuel prices, and the increased demand for services.

“Just like other authorities across the UK, the council will have no choice but to reduce its expenditure in a number of areas and raise additional income, which is likely to have an impact on the level of services provided.

“It is inevitable that when councillors meet to finalise the budget on 29 February, they will have some difficult decisions to make.”
