The government has updated the list of schools discovered to have collapse-prone concrete (RAAC).

Another 27 schools have been discovered to have reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete as of 14 September.

The government previously revealed 147 schools had informed them of the presence of the material.

Thousands of pupils had the start of their term disrupted by the discovery of RAAC, as some schools had to close buildings or classrooms.

Of these, most have all pupils in face-to-face education, while one is fully remote, two have a mix of arrangements, and one is still establishing how to proceed.

There is now only one school which is fully remote – down from four before, while 23 are operating a mix of face-to-face and remote.
