U bent hier: Vlaanderen.be > Onderwijs en Vorming > Nieuws > ScholenbouwRuim 1 miljard voor scholenbouw via alternatieve financieringPersmededeling Kabinet Vlaams minister van Onderwijs en Vorming datum: 10 november 2005 Van nu tot 2011 wordt 1,1 miljard geïnvesteerd in scholenbouw via publiek-private samenwerking (PPS). De Vlaamse regering heeft vandaag de concrete plannen van minister van Onderwijs Vandenbroucke daarvoor goedgekeurd. De inhaaloperatie voor scholenbouw is de eerste grote PPS-constructie die door deze Vlaamse regering wordt opgestart. Minister Vandenbroucke wijst erop dat deze investering, in economisch moeilijke tijden, een belangrijke impuls zal geven aan de bouwsector. In het budget is ook 100 miljoen euro voorzien voor energiebesparende investeringen in scholen waar geen grote verbouwingen gepland zijn. Vlaanderen heeft de voorbije decennia te weinig geïnvesteerd in schoolinfrastructuur. Volgens de laatste ramingen bedraagt de investeringsnood 1,9 miljard euro, waarvan ongeveer 1,4 miljard euro via subsidies van de Vlaamse overheid moeten komen. In 2005 bedroeg het budget voor scholenbouw 140 miljoen euro: met de reguliere budgetten alleen kan de achterstand dus niet teruggedrongen worden. Van bij haar aantreden heeft de Vlaamse regering gezegd een investeringsregering te willen zijn. Ze maakt dat nu voor het eerst concreet via scholenbouw. In de meerjarenbegroting zijn voor de scholenbouw fors extra middelen uitgetrokken: 50 miljoen in 2006 en in 2007, 75 miljoen in 2008 en in 2009. Deze middelen zullen grotendeels gebruikt worden voor het optrekken van de reguliere investeringen. Op die manier wordt verhinderd dat de investeringsachterstand verder oploopt.
