A school that closed following the discovery of “crumbly” concrete on its site months ago might not be repaired for four years, bosses have said.
Mistley Norman C of E Primary in Essex shut after the material, called reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete (RAAC), was found across its main building and its roof in April.
The potentially dangerous material has been dubbed “Aero-like” by structural engineers amid fears it is “now life-expired and liable to collapse”.
Vine Schools Trust, which runs Mistley Norman, estimated its repair bill will add up to more than £1.9 million – a figure it can’t afford.
