Please find set out below the information in response to the above
request:

"Brighton & Hove had not been taken on to the BSF programme at the time it
was cancelled and therefore the amount of work we had completed was only
in respect of preparing an Expression of Interest and Readiness to Deliver
document. This work was undertaken over a period of two years and
involved looking at each of our secondary schools to determine what work
was required at each school.

The total spent on these two elements of work over the two year period is
£279,727.16. "
