Crumbling concrete schools will suffer βfor years to comeβ
The Association of School and College Leaders want "financial protection" to schools affected by Raac, as well as funding to help pupils catch up on "lost learning".
One year ago, teachers, parents and pupils in England were preparing to head back to school as usual - until, for some, panic mode set in.
Schools were suddenly told to close any building containing Reinforced Autoclaved Aerated Concrete, or Raac - a dangerous type of material prone to collapse - that did not have safety measures in place.
Now, as schools prepare for another year affected by Raac, a head teachers' union is warning that many will feel the financial impact for "years to come".
