A Carillion joint venture has achieved financial close on the 拢370m Wolverhampton 好色先生TV Schools for the Future (BSF) programme,

The Wolverhampton Local Education Partnership (LEP), comprising Wolverhampton City Council, 好色先生TV Schools for the Future Investments LLP and Carillion, will deliver 26 schools in five phases over the next four years.

The first phase will comprise two secondary schools and two Special Educational Needs schools with a combined capital cost of about 拢72m.

Two schools in the first phase will be privately financed by a combination of borrowing and equity. The LEP shareholders will contribute about 拢6.6m of equity, of which Carillion will provide some 拢5.2m.

Carillion will also provide facilities management services for the two privately-financed schools and these services are expected to generate about 拢25m of revenue for Carillion over the 25-year concession contract period.

The remaining 22 schools in the Wolverhampton BSF programme will be delivered in four further phases. Some of these schools will also be privately-financed and Carillion expects to make further equity investments in subsequent phases of the programme.

Commenting, Carillion chief executive, John McDonough, said: 鈥淭his latest success further consolidates Carillion鈥檚 position as one of the UK鈥檚 leading suppliers to the 好色先生TV Schools for the Future and Academy programmes, for which we have now been selected to deliver projects worth nearly 拢2.2bn.

鈥淭he major investment being made in Wolverhampton will provide the City with 26 outstanding new schools. We look forward to working with Wolverhampton City Council and its head teachers and their staff to provide the facilities they need to deliver a first-class learning experience for students.鈥�
