The closing date for receipt of submissions to the value for money review of small primary schools was Friday 18th March 2011. A large response was received and the submissions are currently being sorted and acknowledged. I can confirm that almost 1,000 submissions have been received.

The Deputy will appreciate that in the context of this volume of submissions it is not feasible to respond to every submission. However, the content of submissions will be reflected in the review.

The review should be completed by the end of this year and I plan to consider the review's outcomes when they are finalised.
