A school has been handed government funding to buy a new boiler.

Buckingham MP Greg Smith has welcomed the news that Princes Risborough School, which is in his constituency, will get a share of £434 million government cash to pay for the work.

The money is supposed to be used for expanding classrooms and upgrading facilities.

Mr Smith said: "As we exit lockdown we must ensure that schools have the facilities and classrooms they need to support the high-quality education our children deserve.

"This funding for Princes a Risborough School - part of a national package - will help ensure all children have the very best possible schools and education, enabling them to gain all the knowledge and skills they need for success."

School head teacher Simon Baker added: "I am absolutely thrilled to hear the news that the government is funding this essential work.

"It will enable staff and students to focus on education with an environment which is conducive to learning."
