To ask the Secretary of State for Education, when her Department plans to announce whether UTC Portsmouth's bid to expand into Southampton has been successful.
Answer
This free school application wave is prioritising applications for new schools and university technical colleges in areas where they are most needed, both in terms of the demand for additional places, and where they will have biggest impact on improving outcomes.
The department is considering all applications carefully and will announce successful proposals in due course.
