Tom Cox: To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills how many primary schools in the Greater London area she estimates
will need to be replaced within the next five years; and if she will make a statement. [218199]
Mr. Stephen Twigg: My Department does not hold information that would be needed to estimate how many primary schools in the Greater
London area will need to be replaced within the next five years.
The bulk of schools capital is now allocated by formula to authorities and schools, so that they can address their local priorities.
Prioritisation of need should be through an open, rigorous and consultative asset management planning process, based on assessments
of the needs of all schools. Where work is needed, there should be consideration of whether repair, remodelling, or replacement is
appropriate.
Central Government capital support for investment in schools has increased from under £700 million in 1996-97 to £4.9 billion
this year and will rise further to £6.3 billion by 2007-08. Progress is being made year-by- year in improving the quality of the
school building stock.

Mr. Cox: To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment what funding has been made available to the London borough of
Wandsworth in each year since 1997 for improving school buildings. [152680]
Jacqui Smith: The following table shows the total central Government support for capital investment made in Wandsworth local
education authority from 1996-98 to 2000-01. This includes £4.651 million investment through the New Deal for Schools programme.
In January this year, we announced that the New Deal for Schools would be extended over the next three years to 2003-04. Allocations
benefiting schools in Wandsworth local education authority announced in January under the New Deal for Schools total £2.827 million
over three years. This amount will be increased by the extra funding announced in the Chancellor's Budget Statement on 7 March, and
later this year when allocations to local authorities of the new £555 million New Deal for Schools Modernisation programme are
announced.
It will be for Wandsworth and its schools, working within guidelines provided by the Department, to allocate this new funding to
individual projects.
Nationally, capital investment in school buildings has tripled from £683 million a year in 1996-97 to over £2 billion in 2000-01. It
will be £3.5 billion in 2003-04, including grant, credit approvals and Private Finance Initiative credits. There will be central
Government investment of £8.5 billion in school buildings in total from 2001-02 to 2003-04.

Mr. Cox: To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment how much money has been allocated to each London borough
education authority in 1997-98 for the repair and modernisation of school buildings. [31658]
Mr. Byers: The table sets out the amount of credit cover and New Deal for Schools (NDS) grant we have allocated to each London
borough education authority in 1997-98 to support capital expenditure at local education authority (LEA) maintained schools. NDS
grant for 1997-98 was provided for the improvement, renovation or replacement of buildings used for educational purposes and the
provision of equipment (including information technology) for educational purposes. This included support to develop a number of
local public-private partnerships which we expect will result in substantial additional spending on capital. Credit approvals may be
applied to capital spending of all kinds, as may other resources that LEAs have available to them, such as receipts and revenue. We
do not collect information centrally about how much LEAs spend on the repair and modernisation of school buildings.
