The Department will pay DSG to authorities in 25 equal instalments. Payments in the early part of the financial year will be based on the final 2010-11 DSG allocation plus the final 2010-2011 allocations for the mainstreamed grants. From June/July 2011 the profile will be based on finalised DSG allocations derived from the January 2011 pupil numbers, adjusted for the amounts recouped for academies. The first payment of the new profile will be adjusted to take account of the amount previously paid and the amounts recouped for academies.
