School Rebuilding Programme

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what estimate she has made of the timescale for the completion of works at each school announced in the School Rebuilding Programme in February 2024.

Answered by Stephen Morgan

Schools selected for the school rebuilding programme (SRP) will enter delivery at a rate of around 50 per year. All schools, including those announced in February 2024, have been given individual indicative start dates, so responsible bodies can prepare and make informed decisions around their estate.

Once they have entered delivery, SRP projects have taken on average 3-5 years to complete. We assess the individual timelines at each school once delivery begins.
