Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, which schools in Bolsover constituency will receive funding from the school rebuilding programme.

Answered by Stephen Morgan - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Education)

The government has given a long-term commitment for funding through to 2034-35 to improve the condition of schools and colleges across England. We are investing almost £3 billion per year by 2034-35 in capital maintenance and renewal to improve the condition of the school and college estate, rising from £2.4 billion in 2025-26.

This is in addition to investment of almost £20 billion in the School Rebuilding Programme through to 2034-35, delivering rebuilding projects at over 500 schools across England within the existing Programme and expanding the School Rebuilding Programme, with a further 250 schools to be selected within the next two years.

The department invited responsible bodies to nominate schools to be considered for the School Rebuilding Programme in early 2022. There are currently no schools in the constituency of Bolsover in the programme. We will set out further details about the selection process for the additional 250 schools to be selected for the School Rebuilding Programme later this year.

For financial year 2025/26, Derbyshire County Council has been allocated a School Condition Allocation of £10,268,315 to invest across its maintained schools, including those in Bolsover constituency. Academy trusts and voluntary aided school bodies also have access to capital funding to improve the condition of their buildings. More details can be found on GOV.UK, including capital allocations and the outcomes of the Condition Improvement Fund, in which Model Village Primary School and Whaley Thorns Primary School in Bolsover constituency were successful.
