GET RAAC TO BASICS

Tories blasted as 100s of schools still don't know if they have dodgy concrete

- MIKEY SMITH

THE Tories have left 612 schools in the dark on whether they are at risk from crumbling concrete after failing to hit a target of wrapping up their "emergency response" by Christmas.

Last week, 17 more schools were added to the list of sites built with cheap reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete (RAAC) - a bubbly type of concrete that can collapse if it gets wet - bringing the total to 231.
