For this reason, I welcome the government\u2019s commitment to removing RAAC from schools in England and the rebuilding and refurbishment of over 200 schools across the country.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;In the slim chance that a RAAC roof collapses, then not only will it be unacceptable given how long this crisis existed, but the results could be catastrophic. Swift and comprehensive removal is essential, and adequate funding is required to prevent this from reoccurring.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Currently, there are around <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/health-safety-news\/pac-concerned-700000-students-in-unsafe-schools\/134880\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">700,000 children being taught in unsafe or ageing buildings<\/a> and there is really nothing more important than the safety of each child and staff member in our schools. For me, the RAAC crisis poses a wider issue, not only is safety thrown into question, but it has also posed a threat to education standards, leaving pupils unable to access the spaces they require to continue their studies. This disruption could have a profound effect on these children and their attainment and grades, creating a far-reaching issue beyond safety and quality concerns.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Around 1% of schools in England have confirmed RAAC and 119 will require rebuilding or significant refurbishment to remove the risk. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":25,"featured_media":136983,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[306],"tags":[811,3649,432,173174],"stakeholder_rel_tag":[],"contributor_rel_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-136982","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-building-control-news","8":"tag-concrete","9":"tag-education","10":"tag-health-safety","11":"tag-raac"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.9 (Yoast SEO v26.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Rebuilding RAAC: 119 schools to be refurbished | Planning, Building &amp;
