HC Deb 15 June 1993 vol 226 c498W
16. Mr. Cryer

To ask the Secretary of State for Education whether he will make special provision for modernising Victorian schools in urban areas.

Mr. Forth

The Government already provide substantial capital resources for school buildings. LEAs can choose to use the resources available to them to give priority to modernising Victorian buildings if they wish. Capital bids from the governors of voluntary-aided and grant-maintained schools are considered on their merits.
