The latest allocation details for each local authority in Building Schools for the Future waves 1 to 4 are set out in the following table. For wave 4 authorities the detailed split between conventional funding (capital grant) and PFI credits is still to be determined. Some of these allocations may also be subject to change as projects develop, particularly for wave 4. Work is ongoing on initial funding envelopes for waves 5 and 6. Local authorities joining the programme in wave 7 or later will receive their allocations on or after 2011-12.

Building Schools for the Future aims to renew all secondary schools in England where there is need, in fifteen waves of investment which started in 2005-06. We have now launched six waves of Building Schools for the Future projects, which include 72 authorities, allocating funding until 2010-11.
We are reviewing the roll-out of waves 7-15 of Building Schools for the Future and will consult on this shortly. Following the consultation, local authorities will be able to resubmit their expressions of interest, and we will publish the revised national programme for waves 7-15 later in 2008. This will give schools, planning authorities and the private sector good time to get themselves ready to deliver waves 7 and 8.
