1. HIGHEST PER-PERSON INVESTMENT IN EDUCATION IN THE UK Since coming into government, the SNP’s policies have resulted in the HIGHEST LEVEL OF EDUCATION INVESTMENT across the UK. In
Scotland, we invest £1,685 in education per person – compared to £1,382 in Labour-run Wales and £1,319 in Tory-run England. 2. 1,000 SCHOOLS BUILT OR UPGRADED Since the SNP took office, OVER
1,000 SCHOOLS HAVE BEEN BUILT OR UPGRADED – providing well-designed, accessible and inclusive learning environments for pupils. Scotland also has proportionally MORE SCHOOLS THAN ENGLAND
AND WALES – 355 schools per 100,000 pupils, compared to 317 in Wales and 259 in England. Over the SNP’s time in government, we have reduced the number of pupils being educated in
unsatisfactory school buildings by over 75%. 3. MUSIC AND CORE CURRICULUM FEES REMOVED The ability to take part in music or drama should never be limited by a child’s ability to pay. That’s
why we have removed tuition fees for children learning a musical instrument at school, as well as charges for things including materials for home economics, or trips associated with drama
classes.
