Are Hackney primary schools included in BSF?
BSF is a secondary schools programme and primary schools are not included. This is because there are particular challenges to secondary schools to raise standards: improving teaching and learning for 11-14 year olds, developing a broader range of curriculum choices for 14-19 year olds and supporting greater specialisation and collaboration. The increasing focus on specialisms such as in technology, languages or science at secondary level requires specialist facilities.
