Nurseries: Huntingdon
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many of the 3,000 (a) new and (b) expanded school-based nurseries will be in Huntingdon constituency.
Answered by Stephen Morgan
No schools in the Huntingdon constituency were awarded school-based nurseries capital funding in the first phase.
In the Spending Review 2025, we announced almost £370 million of further funding to create tens of thousands of places in new and expanded school-based nurseries to help ensure more children can access the high-quality early education they deserve and get the best start in life.
This is a significant investment and the department will shortly be sharing next steps, where we will encourage schools, working with their local authority, to consider the opportunity to get involved in the programme.
