Woodhouse Primary in Quinton says it cannot completely ensure pupils safety.
Mr Wilson said the school, in Quinton, had been unable to "eliminate the presence of RAAC" through surveys of the building and could therefore not "completely ensure the safety of everyone within the school building".
"We have made the decision to close Woodhouse Primary Academy and move the children to remote learning with immediate effect," he added. Mr Wilson said the school had "acted without delay" to arrange surveys to provide evidence that there was no RAAC present and had completed its own condition survey in the summer.
"Our survey identified that there may be some risk and we then commissioned the Department for Education survey - We are still awaiting a survey," he added.The Prime Minister's official spokesperson said there was not a requirement to close in advance of a survey but declined to say the Woodhouse Primary Academy should stay open, adding that he was "not in the business of dictating" to schools on safety.
