Thank you. The Welsh Government also has announced an extra £73 million allocated to the twenty-first century schools education programme. This brings the total amount invested to £3.8 billion. First Minister, as you witnessed yourself when you formally opened Islwyn High School, the infrastructure of Welsh schools is being reimagined and rebuilt to serve future generations. How then can this radical, transformative initiative be maintained in the years ahead, so Wales never has to witness again the decaying school buildings of the Thatcher and Major eras, when the Conservatives were last in charge of educational Government policy in Wales?
