To ask the Minister of Education, further to AQW 32546/22-27, to detail the names of all schools currently participating in the Extended Schools Programme, broken down by constituency.

The names of all schools participating in the Extended Schools Programme during the 2025/26 financial year, broken down by constituency has been deposited in the Assembly Library. Other information on eligible schools is routinely published on my Department’s website and is available at https://www.education-ni.gov.uk/articles/extended-schools-programme.

The information placed in the Assembly Library also includes eligibility information pertaining to each school. Schools that are fully eligible receive their full funding allocation, schools assessed as buffering receive 50% of their core allocation and schools assessed as exiting or closing receive 25% of their core allocation.
