Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, when the next round of the school rebuilding programme will open for nominations.

Ensuring that schools have the resources and buildings they need is a key part of the department’s mission to break down barriers to opportunity and give every child the best start in life

Nominations to the School Rebuilding Programme (SRP) closed in April. The department will select 250 schools to join the programme by early 2027. Places will be prioritised for the worst condition schools and sixth-form colleges in areas where places are needed now and in the future.

There are currently no plans for another round of nominations for SRP. If further places are confirmed for the programme, the department will advise on the process for how we will prioritise schools for those places.
