Decision details

Reprovision of Dilapidated Building (Junior Block) at Tadworth Primary School to Provide Modern Facilities (PSBP2 Project - DFE Funded)

Decision Maker: Cabinet

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: Yes

Is subject to call in?: Yes

Purpose:

Approve the business case for the project to provide a replacement teaching block to improve the educational facility for the pupils attending the school, into the future. 

The replacement block has been identified via the Department for Education’s PSBP2 works. 

 

Decision:

RESOLVED:

 

That, subject to the agreement of the detailed financial information for the project as set out in the Part 2 annex to the submitted report, the business case for the reprovision of the school building be approved. 

 

Reason for decision:

 

The current block is dilapidated and beyond economic repair. The funding from the Department for Education (DfE) affords the opportunity to replace the existing block and provide children with a new education facility to use for another 60+ years rather than an old, outdated and worn out building.

 

If this is not undertaken SCC will lose the PSBP2 funding from DfE, and will need to carry out the same project at a later date at its own cost while suffering on going inefficient maintenance costs.
