The CWDC is one of a number of organisations to see its funding cut as part of the Government's bid to find £6bn in savings over the next 12 months, of which £670m will be from the Department of Education (DfE). Details were laid out on Monday by Chancellor George Osborne and Chief Secretary to the Treasury David Laws.
A spokesperson for the CWDC said, 'We are working closely with DfE officials to determine how these £15m of cuts will affect us and how we can continue to achieve the very best for children and young people.'
Becta, the Government's technology agency for schools, has been scrapped to save £10m this year and £65m in the future.
