Chancellor Jeremy Hunt has reassured parents the government would ‘spend what it takes’ to address the problem, but Treasury sources later said money for repairs would come from the Department for Education’s existing capital budget.
Shadow education secretary Bridget Phillipson said it is a ‘scandal that as children are just returning to school ministers are still not being upfront about the scale of what we are facing’.Lots of buildings across the UK constructed between the 1950s and 1980s were built using RAAC ‘This is completely unacceptable, children have seen so much disruption to their education and ministers need to get a grip on this because this is a department that is in complete chaos.’
