Propose a change

The School and Early Years Finance (England) Regulations 2025

Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.

Change 1

What to do with it
As published

36 Differential funding

(1) For the purpose of determining (including redetermining)— (a) budget shares for nursery schools maintained by it; (b) amounts to be allocated in respect of nursery classes in schools maintained by it; (c) amounts to be allocated to relevant early years providers in its area; and (d) amounts to be allocated in respect of community early years provision in schools maintained by it, a local authority may use factors or criteria which differentiate between different categories or descriptions of school or provider on the basis of unavoidable costs. (2) In particular, a local authority may include an additional sum in the budget share of each nursery school maintained by it. (3) In paragraph (1), “unavoidable costs” means costs which must be incurred by virtue of a statutory requirement.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".

Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.

A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.

Think it through

Ask what your change would do, who would gain and who would bear a cost, and where something like it is already law. The assistant reads your draft as it stands, cites the law and the studies it finds, and takes no side. What you file stays yours.
