Glasgow City Council has agreed to rebuild or refurbish every primary school in Glasgow, as well as every remaining nursery and additional support for learning (ASL) school in the next five years. 
Elected members approved £5m to be used to cover initial design, project management costs and detailed surveys for phase 5 of the city’s education estate strategy.
Councillor Stephen Curran, Executive Member for Education and Young People, said:
“In the last 12 years this council has spent more than £550 million on improving Glasgow’s schools and this has benefited over 100 establishments across the city.
“Not only will this benefit children across Glasgow, this major capital investment will provide a significant boost to the local economy.
“Education and jobs are both priorities for the council and we are committed to delivering on them.”
