Considered –

 

A report of the Corporate Director – Children and Young People’s Service presenting the Schools Condition Capital Programme for 2024/25 for approval.

 

Councillor Annabel Wilkinson, Executive Member for Education, Learning and Skills, presented the report and advised that the council had received a Schools Condition funding allocation of £5,883,316 for 2024/25 for community and voluntary controlled schools only.  The amount was lower than in previous years due to schools converting to academy status. There was currently a backlog of maintenance of £22.3 million and further planned maintenance of £73.3m over the next 5 years and it was important that investment was focussed on the most significant issues.  Investment priorities were agreed by the Executive in 2022 and were listed at section 5.2 of the report.

 

Resolved (unanimously) – that:

 

i)                 the proposed Schools Capital Programme for 2024/25 as summarised in Appendix A be approved

 

ii)         the Planned Capital Maintenance Programme for 2024/25 as set out in Appendix B be approved

 

iii)        the continuation of the approach for dealing with any schools that convert to Academy status following the approval of the programme as laid out in paragraph 3.3 be agreed
