PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Parkfield School Christchurch (8 July 2015)

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, pursuant to the Answer of 6 July 2015 to Question 5049, how the cost of Parkfield School occupying its current premises at Dorset House for an additional year will be accommodated so that there is no resulting cost to the public purse.

Asked by:
Sir Christopher Chope (Conservative)

We had always intended that Parkfield School would operate from temporary accommodation from September 2015 and had allowed sufficient budget for this. Following the discovery of bats on the school’s permanent site, the budget allocated to putting temporary classrooms on the permanent site will now be used to cover the cost of the school’s continued occupation of Dorset House.
