A secondary school in West Yorkshire has closed to pupils after the discovery of RAAC in one of its buildings.
St Thomas à Becket Catholic Secondary School in Wakefield was closed yesterday , and will remain closed today following the discovery of aerated concrete in one of its buildings after a survey commissioned by the Department for Education. The issue affects several classrooms, and staff are now planning how to use the remaining available space at the school to continue teaching.
, which represents public sector workers, is worried about the impact the closure will have on both students and staff. Yorkshire and Humberside regional organiser Rianne Hooley said: “It’s really concerning that this dangerous concrete has only just been identified in the school, so long after the issue has been in the spotlight and this far into the autumn term. “It means that since September the pupils and staff have been learning and working in a potentially dangerous building. “The government has completely mishandled the crumbly concrete situation and continues to do so.
