On that, while this relates primarily to prefabs, there are some situations where a school is renting something other than a prefab. In particular, I am aware of a school which is currently renting a certain amount of space from another school, and both schools are fairly disadvantaged, so neither has an awful lot of money. The school that is the renter has had to put up the cost of this but it cannot pay for basic costs. Can a school in that situation look for extra funding where it is being charged extra rent? While I am thinking of a particular case, I am sure there must be other cases where schools are renting premises other than prefabs.
