The Secretary of State for Education has announced almost £483 million for 1,466 projects at 1,199 academies, sixth-form colleges and voluntary aided schools as part of the Condition Improvement Fund (CIF).
The CIF is designed to improve building condition, building compliance, energy efficiency and health and safety in schools.
Today I have announced the outcome of the Condition Improvement Fund (CIF) 2021-22 round.
It is great news that the following schools in Colchester are set to benefit from CIF funding:
· The Sixth Form College Colchester
· Highwoods Community Primary School
· St Teresa's Catholic Primary School, Colchester
· St Thomas More's Catholic Primary School, Colchester
CIF also supports a small proportion of expansion projects for Ofsted-rated good or outstanding academies, sixth-form colleges and voluntary aided schools that need to expand their existing facilities and/or floor space to either increase the number of admissions in the main year of entry or address overcrowding.
