In February 2026, the department published the Education Estates Strategy to support and provide guidance for those responsible for managing school and college estates. This guidance is available at: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/education-estates-strategy/education-estates-strategy-a-decade-of-national-renewal.

Alongside this, the department also launched a new digital service, ‘Manage your education estate’, to bring together our estates guidance, data, tools, programmes and funding in one place to provide easier access for responsible bodies and a clear route to share information and communicate with the department. This service available at: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/manage-your-education-estate.
