The latest round of the Department for Education’s Condition Improvement Fund is now open to academies, multi-academy trusts, sixth-form colleges, and voluntary aided schools across England. The Fund provides capital funding for projects of up to £4 million which help keep school and college buildings safe and in good working order. This includes funding projects to address health and safety issues, building compliance, energy efficiency, and poor building conditions. A small proportion of expansion projects will also be supported. This round of funding will give priority to projects that replace coal and oil boilers with low carbon heating systems to prevent school closure. The deadline for applications is 12pm on the 7th December 2022. Funding for Building Maintenance & Improvements for Education Establishments (England)
