question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how much was spent per pupil on improving the condition of school buildings in (a) Barnsley East constituency and (b) the UK on average in each year since 2010.

uin	2655
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 24/07/2017 answer text <p>The Department for Education does not hold data on condition funding for schools by constituency, and has responsibility for schools in England only. The Department has allocated over £9 billion in school condition funding nationally from 2011-12 to 2017-18. Allocations total £1.4 billion a year in every year from 2011-12 to 2017-18. In addition, the £4.4 billion Priority School Rebuilding Programme is rebuilding or refurbishing those school buildings in the worst condition across the country.</p><p>Barnsley East is part of Barnsley local authority, which received condition funding (including Devolved Formula Capital, provided directly to schools) of over £24 million from the 2011-12 to 2017-18 financial years, an average of £3.5 million per year. This totals £4.7 million in 2011-12, £4.1 million in 2012-13, £3.5 million in 2013-14, £2.7 million in 2014-15, £2.8 million in 2015-16, £3.4 million in 2016-17 and £3.5 million in 2017-18. Local authorities decide how allocations are distributed to maintained schools in their areas. These amounts do not include allocations made to academies in the area. As academy trusts often allocate funding across local-authority boundaries, it is not possible to calculate condition funding per pupil for a local area.</p><p>Details on current and future school condition allocations are published here: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/capital-allocations" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/capital-allocations</a>.</p><p>A breakdown of Devolved Formula Capital funding by institution is available for 2017-18: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/capital-allocations" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/capital-allocations</a>.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Bognor Regis and Littlehampton answering member printed Nick Gibb question first answered 24/07/2017 17:57:24 answering member 111 label Biography information for Nick Gibb

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 06/07/2017 answer text <p>Maintained nursery schools are able to offer the 30 hours entitlement, as are all early years providers. However, if they cannot or do not want to offer the whole entitlement themselves, we would encourage them to work in partnership with others. We have supported this approach, for example by publishing practical advice on working in partnership, and by allowing childminders to spend up to half of their time working on non-domestic premises (such as schools).</p> answering member constituency Scarborough and Whitby answering member printed Mr Robert Goodwill question first answered 06/07/2017 14:25:54 answering member 1562 label Biography information for Sir Robert Goodwill
