Question to the Department for International Development:

To ask the Secretary of State for International Development, whether UK direct or multilateral aid to the Palestinian Authority provides any financial or in-kind support to schools named after terrorists.

No UK bilateral financial assistance to the Palestinian Authority is used to provide finance or in-kind support to schools. UK bilateral funding contributes to the salaries of all vetted health and education Palestinian Authority public servants on the EU PEGASE list, including Palestinian Authority teachers in the West Bank regardless of which school they are employed in. The UK does not earmark core contributions to UN agencies and other multilaterals.
