HC Deb 29 April 2004 vol 420 c1262W
Mr. Collins

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills how many study centres have been built in conjunction with leading football clubs since 1997. [167582]

Mr. Miliband

Since 1997, 58 study support centres have been built, or existing premises refurbished, in conjunction with football clubs as part of the Department's Playing for Success initiative. The clubs involved are from the FA Premier, Nationwide and Conference Leagues. The Department's contribution to the costs has been matched by the LEAs and clubs involved.
