Academy Set To Be Most Expensive In Uk (from Lancashire Telegraph): "THE CONTROVERSIAL Darwen academy is on course to become the most expensive school of its type ever built.

The final cost of the project, originally put at £34million, is now nearer £49million, according to a leaked borough council document.

The Department for Children, Schools and Families reveals that only two other academies, which are opening in September, have come close to this sum, with The Bridge Academy in London costing about £47million and the Thomas Deacon Academy, Peterborough, about £46million."
