Early Years Capital Bids/Section 106

Early Years Sufficiency

Diana Spragg Senior Manager for Early Years Sufficiency has been working hard with her team to enable bids to be placed for capital funds.

Deadline for submission of bids to DfE was 31 August 2016. Warwickshire was allowed to submit a maximum of 6 bids (classed as a high needs LA). Capital can only be used for schemes that will enable new nursery places for 30 Hours entitlement to be created. There is no guarantee that any schemes will be approved and DfE will notify LAs in December of the outcome of the bidding process.

The six bids submitted in order of priority were:

 

Knightlow Children’s Partnership, Knightlow Primary School, Stretton-on-Dunsmore
