Work begins on government school rebuilding projects
Education Secretary Nadhim Zahawi has ‘broke ground’ at at West Coventry Academy, one of the first 100 schools to be rebuilt under the Prime Minister’s ten-year School Rebuilding Programme.
West Coventry Academy will have new buildings designed to reduce energy consumption and support the UK’s net zero by 2050 target. The £38.4 million project is a complete rebuild of the school, and includes a brand new, state of the art sports hall, which will also serve the local community.
The government is currently consulting on how to prioritise which schools will be selected for the School Rebuilding Programme in future.
Education Secretary Nadhim Zahawi said: "I have broken ground on one of the first 500 schools that the government is rebuilding, which will transform the lives of thousands of children over years to come.
"We are revolutionising the school estate to future proof both our children’s education and the environment, with new school buildings that are net zero in operation - leading the charge for more sustainable schools and supporting students and teachers to make a positive impact on the environment.
"These rebuilds and refurbishments, with the first 100 projects backed by £2bn government funding, will create world-leading education facilities, from classrooms and science labs to sports halls and dining rooms."
