Nurseries: Lincolnshire
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many of the new school-based nurseries will be in (a) South Holland and the Deepings constituency and (b) Lincolnshire.
Answered by Stephen Morgan
Under the school-based nurseries capital grant for 2024 to 2025, schools could apply to create or expand school-based nursery provision. This first phase funded 300 projects to make high-quality childcare more available and accessible for families, delivering on our Plan for Change to ensure a record proportion of children start school ready to learn. Seven schools received funding in the Lincolnshire local authority. Four schools will be opening new, school-run nurseries. There will be two in South Holland and The Deepings, one in Sleaford and North Hykeham, and one in Lincoln. The remaining funded projects are for expansions of existing nurseries. One in Boston and Skegness, one in Rutland and Stamford, and one in Gainsborough. The published list of successful projects is available here: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/school-based-nursery-capital-grant-application-outcomes?utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=govuk-notifications-topic&utm_source=fe34fce2-3673-4d46-9ff6-d06d1c0d1cf8&utm_content=immediately.
