Question reference: S2W-18439

Asked by: Lord James Douglas-Hamilton, MSP for Lothians, Scottish Conservative and Unionist Party
Date lodged: Monday, 15 August 2005
Current Status: Answered by Peter Peacock on 13 September 2005

To ask the Scottish Executive whether it will list all schools which were (a) opened, (b) closed and (c) refurbished in each year since 1975, broken down by sector.

Systematic information on the opening and closing of schools was not collected before June 1995. The following tables provide details of primary, secondary and special schools opened and closed between June 1995 and July 2005. Both local authority and independent schools are included as well as schools that have merged to form new schools or have moved site. The information has been derived from information collected annually by the Scottish Executive Education Department on the opening and closing of schools.

Local authorities are responsible for the management of school buildings, and the Scottish Executive does not collect detailed information from them on the wide range of school building projects they carry out. Such information as we do have indicates that between April 1999 and December 2004 local authorities progressed more than 400 capital projects on existing school buildings involving over £250k in a primary school and £500k in a secondary school.

Asked by: Lord James Douglas-Hamilton, MSP for Lothians, Scottish Conservative and Unionist Party
Date lodged: Monday, 15 August 2005
Current Status: Answered by Peter Peacock on 8 September 2005

To ask the Scottish Executive, in light of the recent publication of the responses to the consultation on the draft Scottish Schools (Parental Involvement) Bill, what percentage of the consultation responses received were in favour of the retention of school boards, either as they are or with some amendment, improvement or adjustment to their current form and what percentage of responses received were totally in favour of their abolition.

Current Status: Answered by Peter Peacock on 8 September 2005

To ask the Scottish Executive what the total amount of capital investment not funded from revenue was in (a) primary, (b) secondary and (c) special schools in each year since 1975.

The table gives details of local authority gross capital expenditure on schools, excluding expenditure funded from revenue, for the financial years 1975‑76 to 2004‑05. Prior to 1990-2001, the information collected was not broken down into different school categories. From 1990-91, the collection has been in the categories shown in the table with no separate identification of expenditure on primary schools as against secondary schools. The figures do not include Public Private Partnership projects, where the capital expenditure is incurred by the private sector partner, not the local authority.

To ask the Scottish Executive what the gross revenue expenditure per (a) primary school pupil and (b) secondary school pupil was in schools in each year from 1990 to 1998.

The gross revenue expenditure by local authorities per primary and secondary pupil for the years 1993-94 to 1998-99 are shown in Table 1. Data on the gross revenue expenditure in each sector were not collected prior to 1993-94 and therefore per pupil figures for primary and secondary education are not available for 1990-91, 1991-92 and 1992-93.
