Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many schools in each region and constituent part of the UK are on the Priority School Building Programme.

The Priority School Building Programme (PSBP) is a centrally managed programme set up to address the needs of the schools most in need of urgent repair. Through the programme, 261 schools will be rebuilt or have their condition needs met by the Education Funding Agency (EFA).

The first school opened in May 2014 and all schools within the programme will be delivered by the end of 2017, two years earlier than originally announced.

A full list of the schools in the programme, by region, is published online at:
