Parents of pupils at Kingsdown school in Southend have been left upset and worrying about what will happen to their children with the new term due to start on Monday
A school for children with special educational needs and disabilities was told it is “effectively condemned” and would need to be demolished because of unsafe concrete just days before pupils and staff were due to return,by fresh guidance over the safety of Reinforced Autoclaved Aerated Concrete , a form of the material used between the 50s to the 90s that is now potentially structurally unsound.
He said he has been hearing from parents who are “very upset” about the decision. Less than a few hundred children attend the school and Southend Council is hoping to accommodate them in another school nearby but“I was speaking to the parents of one child last night, they are both working parents and they’ve been covering the school holidays with care arrangements and holiday,” he said.
The Government has said it will cover all of the capital costs of schools that are affected by RAAC and need to repair buildings.
