The Welsh Education Partnership
The project is a joint venture and long-term partnership between the Development Bank of Wales (The Welsh Government) and Meridiam, with a view to design, build, finance, operate and maintain educational infrastructures over 25 years.
The objectives of the WEP programme are to establish a stable and long-term partnership that delivers educational and community facilities in line with the Well-being of Future Generations Act, thus providing demonstrable value for money to the public sector and transparency to national and local stakeholders.
WEPCo’s role is to facilitate the delivery of new educational facilities, primarily schools and colleges in Wales using the Mutual Investment Model (MIM) developed by the Welsh Government to finance major capital projects.
Furthermore, the Partnership seeks to develop, invest, and manage projects that offer additional beneficial outcomes for local communities through a bespoke Skills Academy Framework.
Social Value & ESG sit at the very heart of our approach, and we are committed to working with our supply chains to deliver public education infrastructure which will:
- Improve the economic, social, environmental, and cultural wellbeing of Wales.
- Deliver sustainable and resilient infrastructure that improve the quality of people’s lives.
- Drive sustainable growth and aspiration, creating opportunities through trade, investment, jobs and skills.
- Embrace and champion the diversity, culture, and pride of Wales.
