Building Schools for the Future

Question
To ask the Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families if he will make a statement on the progress of the Building Schools for the Future programme.
Answer

The Building Schools for the Future programme is progressing well. The first BSF school (Bristol Brunei Academy) was opened by the PM and the Secretary of State in September 2007. Local authorities plans show that we expect 12 new schools to be open by December 2008, 35 more in 2008-09, 115 more in 2009-10, 165 more in 2010-11, and then around 200 a year and rising thereafter.
