INPP MAKES FURTHER INVESTMENT INTO UK SCHOOLS

International Public Partnerships Limited, the FTSE 250 listed infrastructure investment company ("INPP" or the "Company"), has acquired an accretive additional interest in the Bradford and Lewisham Building Schools for the Future ("BSF") Projects (the "Projects").

INPP will commit a further c.£3.6 million to acquire stakes in the six PFI project companies that own the fourteen schools providing education facilities to over 17,000 pupils across Bradford and Lewisham, UK.

Upon completion the Company will hold a 54% investment in three of the Lewisham BSF schemes and 45% in the fourth, as well as increasing its share in the two Bradford schemes to 15.5% and 19% in the phase 1 and phase 2 schemes respectively.
