This from the BBC:
Treasury sources say that Wednesday's Autumn Statement will spell out how £1bn will go towards building 100 new free schools and academies, creating an additional 50,000 new school places.
This is cynical spin. School building under labour was very significant and went a long way to bring education buildings back up to scratch. In 1997 many of them were in a desperate state due to Tory non-funding.
At the last election there were still some schools that had been promised new buildings - in a real mess and desperately in need. This programme was cut by Gove.
Now the public spending cuts are being spun as "to build schools".
But, we should note, "new schools". 
If you are a school that does not want to become an academy I guess you will not be eligible. A way of forcing academy status on unwilling boards of governors and heads. They will call it a new school, and a "new school place" when actually it is just a new building for a school that has to become an academy or put up with terrible accommodation.
Or, even worse, is Gove planning to give substantial sums of money away to anyone who fancies starting a "free school" .
Will Gove really cut his civil servant count by half while managing this lot. I doubt it.
Head in hands. They go from bad to worse.
