Building Schools for the Future
How will the
programme be delivered?
Newham has an excellent track record of
delivering high quality, complex and far reaching projects aimed at
raising educational standards through capital
investment.
The council will work in partnership with all
stakeholders to deliver a programme that is focused on improving
educational outcomes rather than simply renovation of buildings. A
key element of this is the creation of a Local Educational
Partnership (LEP) which will be set up as a joint venture company
comprising the London Borough of Newham, Partnerships for Schools
(PfS) and a private sector partner. PfS is the body set up by the
government to deliver BSF. The LEP will be responsible for
delivering the design and refurbishment or, in the case of some
schools, rebuild to provide the new educational facilities funded
by the BSF scheme. Four schools will be rebuilt and these will be
financed through a Private Finance Initiative (PFI) contract.
