7 The remaining chapters set out our findings:
• Chapter 2 assesses quality, cost and timeliness. It focuses on the results of the BRE survey, which provided an objective assessment by experts of the quality of design and build of new schools, and provision for services within them, and the MORI survey, which recorded what users thought. The chapter then compares the capital and running costs of schools under different procurement options, and ends by describing improvements. Importantly, the lessons we identify are not just about PFI, but about school design and whole-life cost management more generally.
• Chapter 3 sets out the lessons that can be learnt from the early experiences of schools, LEAs and PFI providers involved in implementing PFI and running services locally.
• Chapter 4 reviews how VFM is currently measured for PFI and how changes to the system at a national level might help to promote better outputs, both in terms of quality and cost.
• Chapter 5 sets out the overarching conclusions and the way forward.
