Rutland and Melton MP Alicia Kearns had welcomed the announcement that schools in Rutland and Melton will benefit from a total of £868,000.
Bottesford Church of England Primary School, Sherard Primary School and Uppingham Church of England Primary School have been allocated a share of £560 million Government investment, to expand classrooms, upgrade facilities and improve the education of children across the whole country. This funding will ensure schools have well-maintained facilities to provide students with safe environments that support a high-quality education.
This major new investment will ensure our schools and colleges can focus on teaching, with brand new buildings and better facilities so that every child gets the world-class education they deserve.
Rutland and Melton MP, Alicia Kearns, said:
“ The pandemic has taken a toll on us all, not least our children, who have been kept from their friends, their teachers and their schools. I am so very pleased that three of our wonderful local schools will benefit from the Government’s hard work in releasing this additional £560 million at great speed.”
Alicia Kearns MP continues to work with local schools to ensure they are supported in preparation for welcoming students back in September.
