To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what funding will be allocated to schools in Solihull to upgrade buildings and boost school places.
Well maintained, safe school buildings are a priority for the Department. Solihull Local Authority has been provisionally allocated a school condition allocation of £1,830,392 for the 2023/24 financial year to spend maintaining and improving its school buildings.
Large multi-academy trusts and voluntary-aided school groups with schools in Solihull will also have been allocated a school condition allocation to spend on their school buildings. Smaller and single academy trusts have been invited to bid into the condition improvement fund, with outcomes expected in May 2023. Schools in Solihull Local Authority have also been provisionally allocated £989,127 in devolved formula capital to spend on their own capital priorities. Two schools in Solihull Local Authority, Arden and Our Lady of Compassion Catholic Primary School, have been announced for inclusion for the School Rebuilding Programme, which will see transformational rebuilds or significant refurbishments at these schools.
The Department provides capital funding through the Basic Need grant to support Local Authorities provide school places, based on their own pupil forecasts and school capacity data. They can use this funding to provide places in new schools or through expansions of existing schools, and can work with any school in their local area, including academies and free schools. Solihull will receive just over £7.8 million for places needed for 2026. This takes Solihull’s total funding allocated between 2011 and 2026 to just over £41.2 million.
Solihull has also been allocated a total of just under £6.3 million through High Needs Provision Capital Allocations (HNPCA) for financial years 2022/23 and 2023/24. This funding will help the Local Authority to create new places and improve existing provision for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities or who require alternative provision. Prior to that, the Local Authority received just under £1.1 million through its 2021/22 HNPCA funding announced in April 2021. It is for the Local Authority to determine how to best use their HNPCA funding to address their local priorities, and they can work with any school in their area to do so.
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how much capital funding his Department will spend on (a) creating new school places and (b) investing in existing school buildings in each of the next five fiscal years.

The Department is investing £23 billion in the school estate in the current Spending Review period (2016-17 to 2020-21) to deliver new school places, rebuild or refurbish buildings in the worst condition and deliver thousands of condition projects across the school estate. The Department also invests capital in other sectors, including higher education, further education and children’s social care.
The Department has committed £7 billion to create new school places between 2015 and 2021. Alongside our investment in the free schools programme, we expect this to provide 600,000 new places. Local authority basic need allocations are available at:
https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/basic-need-allocations.
Local authority allocations for new places and improved facilities for pupils with special educational needs and disabilities are available at:
https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/send-provision-capital-funding-for-pupils-with-ehc-plans.
There are 443 free schools open as of 1 March 2019 (520 including university technical colleges (UTCs) and studio schools) and a further 263 free schools (264 including 1 UTC) currently in the pipeline.
The Department has allocated £6 billion in condition funding since 2015 to maintain and improve school buildings. In addition to this, the Department is rebuilding or refurbishing more than 500 school buildings in the poorest condition, through the Priority Schools Building Programme.
The main project or programme that makes up the Department’s spend in Capital Annually Managed Expenditure is student loans, where projections for this Spending Review can be seen in the data table on page 178 of the ‘Department’s Annual Report and Accounts 2017-18’, using the link below:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what estimate she has made of the average cost to the public purse of an additional (a) school place and (b) classroom in each of the next three years.
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what estimate she has made of the average cost to the public purse of an additional (a) school place and (b) classroom in each of the next three years.
New school places and classrooms are delivered through a variety of programmes across England. The Department does not centrally collect data on the cost of building primary or secondary schools across all local authorities. The cost of building new places and classrooms varies significantly depending on local factors including: the size of the project; forecasts of construction inflation; and regional variations in the cost of construction. All of these are subject to change over time.
Local authorities report the cost per place of providing new school places through the annual School Capacity data collection. For primary schools this data has been used to produce basic need scorecards. The scorecards detail the cost per place, including for new schools, for each local authority. The latest published scorecards are for the academic year 2013/14 and can be accessed on GOV.UK at: www.gov.uk/government/publications/primary-school-places-local-authority-basic-need-scorecards-2014.

My Lords, this Bill is not wholly bad but it is flawed, and in my judgment may be fatally flawed. At its heart it lacks authenticity in that it claims to embrace the concept of greater professionalism, but in willing the ends it effectively destroys the means. I declare two...
