The Government has pledged to increase spending on schools. Today at Prime Minister’s Questions I urged the Prime Minister to ensure this will be spent on school building repairs, particularly for multi-academy trusts and voluntary controlled schools, such as Orchards Academy in Swanley and West Kingsdown CE Primary School I know from my visits over the summer, these schools have been unable to apply for the previous funding support, and their buildings are in urgent need of repair.
I was delighted to hear that funding will be available soon, and I hope it will make a difference to our local schools in the near future.
