Capital investment in schools

AS THE Government begins to re-build the nation’s medium term growth prospects, it has acknowledged the pressing need for additional investment in education. In the Chancellor’s Autumn Statement, it has committed a further £1.2 billion* capital investment in schools in England, commencing in 2012.

The market

NEW PRIORITIES govern the direction of the schools capital spend for 2012. The new school rebuilding programme is aimed at those schools in the worst condition. In creating a new model for allocating and prioritising capital, the Secretary of State wants to see a more centralised approach to “capture efficiencies and build expertise”. This will see a distinct trend towards standardised drawings and specifications for future buildings.

What’s in it for you?

NEW BUILD and refurbishments need to be more cost effective, more flexible and more sustainable. For manufacturers and service providers, the challenge is clear: to deliver cutting-edge materials and equipment that offer greater design possibilities, longevity and value for money. edb is firmly established as the number one journal for key stakeholders in Education and provides the ideal showcase to present the latest products. Editorial encompasses both the internal and external environment, providing a valuable insight into design and specification, together with authoritative news, comment and analysis. Every issue is packed with dozens of cast studies showing the best ideas in design across all types of educational building.
