Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, pursuant to the Answer of 27 May 2022 to Question 5499, for what reason his Department is unable to provide the total modelled condition need and average condition need per school for each local authority area or Parliamentary constituency.

The department plans to publish school level building condition data collected in the Condition Data Collection (CDC) programme later this year. We are considering publication of the modelled average condition need per school at local authority and parliamentary constituency level and will set out plans when we publish the building condition data.

The department have published the total modelled condition need for the CDC programme, in the report published in May 2021, which is £11.4 billion. Further details can be found here: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/989912/Condition_of_School_Buildings_Survey_CDC1_-_key_findings_report.pdf.

The report also includes a regional breakdown of both modelled condition need and average condition need per school.
