Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, if he will list the names of advisers contracted to assist the development of secure schools and the (a) qualifications and (b) professional backgrounds of those advisers.
In the development of the Secure School’s model we have sourced specialist services in the fields of education, architecture, planning, cost consultancy and project support such as business case development. All these services have been provided on a limited time basis and have been sourced through the relevant Crown Commercial framework. Due to the commercial sensitivity, we are unable to publish the individual names and backgrounds of the advisers that were contracted to assist on secure schools.
