<p>The Department for Education does not hold the information in the form requested.</p><p>Whether
applicants already have premises for their proposed school, and who provides those
premises, are not, on their own, material factors in the decision to approve or reject

of the need for the school, the strength of the applicants' education plans and their
ability to deliver a school that is financially viable and likely to be judged “good”
or “outstanding” by Ofsted.</p><p> </p>
