Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, with reference to the Government's Levelling Up White Paper, if he will publish details of the additional funding that St Helens Metropolitan Borough will receive as a result of having been identified as an Education Investment Area.

We are making over £100 million of funding available to support Education Investment Areas over the course of the Spending Review period.

Our Schools White Paper will set out further details on the funding available to Education Investment Areas, as well our plans to make a wider programme of support available to a priority subset of these areas.
