Building Schools for the Future Programme

Volume 468: debated on Monday 3 December 2007

To ask the Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families which local authorities included in the Building Schools for the Future programme have made submissions which have not included a proposal to open an academy. (168290)

The following list shows the local authorities in waves 1 to 4 of Building Schools for the Future, of which six do not have an open Academy, or one in the pipeline. These are Gateshead, Knowsley, South Tyneside, Tower Hamlets, Cambridgeshire and Somerset. The BSF submissions made by the other authorities may not have included proposals to open an academy, because either they already had an academy open or in the pipeline, or because open or planned academies are outside of the geographical area covered by their BSF projects.
