(BSF) programme believe that it is leading to more strategic procurement of school infrastructure than previous school building programmes. Local Authorities are using BSF to rearrange the location, type and number of schools in their area and create facilities and school environments which support their educational objectives. BSF schools are built to higher specifications and space standards than previous schools. The Department for Children, Schools and Families (DCSF) and Partnerships for Schools (the body established by DCSF to manage the BSF programme centrally) were too optimistic in their assumptions of how quickly the first schools could be delivered. By December 2008, only 42 of the planned 200 schools had been built, with 54 due to open next year and 121 the year after. To include all schools in the programme, 250 schools will need to be built a year and the number of schools in procurement and construction at any one time will need to double from 2011 onwards. The extent to which problems in the finance markets will affect BSF is still unclear. DCSF and Partnerships for Schools estimate that the total cost of renewing the school estate will be between £52 billion to £55 billion which is £7 billion to £10 billion more than was estimated at the outset of the programme.

Under the Building Schools for the Future programme the Government is seeking to rebuild or refurbish all secondary schools in England over a 15-year period at a cost of £45 billion, with local authorities participating in a series of 15 'waves'. The Committee's report examines the progress being made on the programme and makes recommendations about the ways in which the process might be improved, focusing on three key areas: the planning and procurement process; whether the objective of educational transformation is really at the heart of the process; and whether the issue of sustainability has been adequately defined and has a sufficiently high profile. The report acknowledges that this is an immensely ambitious programme, given its aim is not only to improve school buildings and provide investment in ICT facilities but also to transform the educational experience of pupils and to embed sustainability. Not since the huge Victorian and post-war building waves has there been investment in the school capital stock on this scale, and there is no project like it anywhere else in the world. Delays in the project against its original timetable are of less significant risk to its success than inadequate early planning at a local level. It is vital that local authorities who have encountered delays are able to develop plans that are robust and achievable, and that the lessons are learned from the experiences of earlier 'waves' of the programme in order to avoid repetition of the same delays and difficulties. The Committee accepts that it is the viability of a project as it is developed that is the main risk factor in a BSF project, but notes that there are risks associated with PFI as a funding method. It calls on the Government to clarify its assessment of the sustainability of the levels of revenue commitments across local authorities in general and the lessons that it has learned from those PFI funded schools which have been forced to close.

Under the Building Schools for the Future (BSF) programme the Government is seeking to rebuild or refurbish all secondary schools in England over a 15-year period at a cost of £45 billion, with local authorities participating in a series of 15 'waves'. This document sets out the Government's reply to a report by the Education and Skills Committee (HCP 140-I, session 2006-07; ISBN 9780215035974) published in August 2007. The report examined the progress being made on the programme and made recommendations about the ways in which the process might be improved, focusing on three key areas: the planning and procurement process; whether the objective of educational transformation is really at the heart of the process; and whether the issue of sustainability has been adequately defined and has a sufficiently high profile. Responses are given under a number of headings including: procurement problems; learning lessons from previous 'waves'; PFI and capital funding; primary schools; further education; educational transformation; local decisions and Government policy; developing the use of ICT; future proofing; accountability framework; sustainable procurement; and BSF project management.

The Department for Children, Schools and Families' Building Schools for the Future Programme (BSF) plans to renew every secondary school in the country, by rebuilding half of them, structurally remodelling 35 per cent, refurbishing 15 per cent and providing Information Communication Technology to all. Its aim is to use capital investment in new buildings as a catalyst to improve educational outcomes. The Department estimates that the programme will cost £52-£55 billion over its lifetime. The Department was over-optimistic in its original planning assumptions for BSF: of the 200 schools originally planned to be completed by December 2008, only 42 had been by that date. The Department now expects the programme to take 18 years, with the last school completed in 2023. Local authorities are responsible for the local delivery of BSF. They plan, procure and manage the BSF school buildings. In 2004, the Department established Partnerships for Schools to manage the national delivery of the programme. The Department and Partnerships for Schools encourage local authorities to procure their schools through a Local Education Partnership. These are 10-year partnerships to procure a flow of projects, structured as joint ventures between the local authority, a consortium of private companies that build, finance and maintain schools, and Building Schools for the Future Investments. It is too early to conclude whether BSF will achieve its educational objectives. To date, over-optimism has meant the programme could not live up to expectations. Establishing Partnerships for Schools to manage the programme centrally has helped local authorities to deliver more effectively, but while Local Education Partnerships have potential advantages, their value for money is yet to be proven. And it will be very challenging to deliver all schools by 2023.

The aim of this guide is to inspire the best possible designs for school grounds. It covers all school sectors, including special educational needs, looking at both the development of existing space and new build. Using examples from recent developments it also shows how well designed grounds can enhance learning, encourage well-being and influence behaviour. The three main sections cover: the process of developing school grounds; designing and building; supporting school ground development. It is written for everyone involved in the process, including teachers, governors, architects, local authorities and sponsors. Although not a technical guide, it contains a references to more specific information

Bringing together leading experts from the fields of architecture, design, engineering, education and the social sciences, this valuable collection presents a multidimensional understanding of the complexities and ways in which school designs influence and are influenced by educational practice. Moving beyond the long-debated question as to whether the design of a school influences pedagogic practice, chapters acknowledge the multiple and diverse ways in which teaching, learning, development and inclusion are impacted by the nature and quality of the physical environment. Considering changes in national and international policy, and exploring the changing pressures and demands on design, education and schooling more broadly, contributors rethink and re-envision those aspects of design and educational practice in which they specialise. Together, these chapters present a bold vision for the future conceptualisation, development and use of school buildings and facilities. An important contribution to debates on school design and education, inclusion and pedagogy, this is an essential and fascinating read for students, researchers, lecturers and policymakers involved in the fields of education and architecture.

Wouldn’t it be great if you could equip your school and yourself to face whatever the future might throw at you! Schools face myriad calls on their time and creativity yet have finite internal resources to respond to them. This can result in piecemeal changes, and reactive rather than pro-active approaches. This book reduces, filters and prioritises the demands on staff energy to the central task of all schools - to achieve the best engagement of and learning outcomes for all learners (including the staff themselves). Schools often feel constrained by their current context, their previous performance, their demographics or available staff. This book provides an holistic and effective approach to change management that is simple, engages all stakeholders, is built around the current expertise and culture of the school and, most importantly, is sustainable. It is suitable for headteachers, senior or aspiring leaders, and those driving change through initiatives, but also individual teachers who are interested in effective practice as a route towards personal well-being and professional satisfaction. -- Dr Morris Charlton
