Hello inforequestbsf,
Thank you for your interesting question.
After some research, here is what I have gathered: all the contracts
that have been awarded under BSF. The bits that I quote about the
contracts being awarded are all from the p4s.org.uk front page or news
archives; from there, you can download an announcement from the city
that approved the contract. If the contractor won for both, I have
mentioned it; in some cases, ICT contracts have been awarded and
construction ones haven't, and in other cases, construction contracts
have been awarded and ICT contracts have not. At the end, I have
appended some schools that still have lists of contractors that they
are choosing from, and I have included what contractors they are.
