To ask the Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families how many maintained schools have been fitted with sprinkler systems in the last 12 months. (296195)

I refer my hon. Friend to the reply given on 20 October, Official Report, column 1436, in answer to which the Department placed a list of recently completed secondary schools with and without sprinkler systems in the Libraries. The list includes the date the schools were completed and the local authority where they are situated. However, we do not hold such information for primary schools.
