TRANSFORMING HARTLEPOOL SCHOOLS

What is BSF?

Building Schools for the Future (BSF) is the biggest-ever school buildings investment programme. The aim of BSF funding is to rebuild or renew nearly every secondary school in England. It is envisaged, all secondary aged children and young people will have access to 21st Century standard facilities, with all secondary schools either renewed or replaced within the next 15 years.

Our vision for the future

Hartlepool Council believes that BSF is a fantastic opportunity to provide many future generations of the children and young people of Hartlepool with state of the art school facilities, through this multi-million pound investment. But even more importantly this investment will give us the opportunity to enable all children and young people to achieve their full potential by shaping their learning to meet their individual needs. Working together with schools, colleges and key partners we will ensure that our future schools are at the heart of their local communities, with a range of services to transform learning for all ages. Inspirational facilities will help raise aspirations and lead to even greater success, at school and throughout later life.

How much money will we have and what can we do with it?

Hartlepool is a Wave 5 BSF Authority. The total amount of BSF funding available to spend on Hartlepool secondary schools is likely to be approximately £100 million. This should enable us to replace about half of our secondary schools and remodel and improve others.
