The accuracy of the government’s RAAC school data has been thrown into doubt after responsible bodies were wrongly told they had failed to complete surveys for the dangerous material.
Meanwhile other trusts have been unable to provide updated information about the presence of RAAC on their sites, while another had to tell the government it was missing from the official list, despite having the ‘crumbly concrete’
Education secretary Gillian Keegan told academy trust leaders and councils yesterday to “get off their backsides” and complete the questionnaire on the presence of RAAC by the end of this week.
A letter sent yesterday warned government is “likely” to publish information about schools with the concrete, those that do not contain it and any “where there is still uncertainty”.
