School Estates

As part of the School Estates Core Facts survey, information is collected on the size, condition, suitability and capacity of all schools open on 1st April 2014. Information is also collected on all schools that had been rebuilt or substantially refurbished during the financial year 2013-14. This information is used to monitor the progress that has been made in improving the school estate. The figures below show that over the last seven financial years, a total of 526 schools have been rebuilt or substantially refurbished. Only rebuilds or refurbishments with a cost of £0.5 million or more for primary and £1 million or more for secondary and special schools were included.
