Basic need funding is the money given to local authorities each year to help them fulfil their duty to make sure there are enough school places for children in their local area.
The allocations announced in 2018 will allow local authorities to create the new school places they need by September 2021.
Barker can help you develop your proposals, oversee local-authority projects or provide a full project management service for your school expansion.
We have regularly delivered cost savings of over 25% when acting on basic need funded projects, savings that can be deployed to provide enhanced facilities to your school.
If you are in receipt of Basic Need Funding or have a potential project to discuss, contact Barker today to see how we can help.
