The purpose of this paper is to consider and endorse the continuing and future proposals and investment priorities for the council’s rolling Sustainable Communities for Learning Programme, for submission to the Welsh Government.
Band B of the Programme, formerly known as the 21st Century Schools Programme, is due to end on 31 March 2024, by which time authorities must submit a nine-year capital programme, including an indicative funding forecast for the 9 years, for consideration towards providing a commitment and support for the first 3 years along with in-principle support for years 4, 5 and 6. Years 7 to 9 are intended to reflect the longer-term project pipeline.
The remaining Band B projects will be included in the first three years of the nine-year capital programme.
