Formerly Building Schools for the Future
Building Schools for the Future (BSF) was the biggest ever
school buildings investment programme. The aim was to rebuild or renew nearly
every secondary school in England.
BSF attempted to enable every local authority to transform their secondary school estate. It aimed to change the educational experience for pupils and teachers and to increase opportunities for life-long learning for the wider community.
