Bispham Endowed Primary, on Bispham Road, has seen its hall taken out of use as a precaution

All of Blackpool’s schools will reopen as normal for the autumn term after it emerged that none are amongst those ordered to close because of the presence of a type of concrete that can suddenly collapse.

The government has so far refused to publish a list of the affected schools, with schools minister Nick Gibb telling BBC Radio 4’s Today programme on Friday morning that he wanted parents “to hear from [their child’s] school, not read about it in the media first”. “But in some cases they have, so we know those schools that have RAAC from those [survey] returns and we know the condition of it,” Mr. Gibb added in his Radio 4 interview.

“If there’s any doubt whatsoever – and there’s an opportunity to do a more robust survey that’s going to guarantee that there are no issues – then we would welcome the resources being applied to put that in place. The government says that the decision to close RAAC facilities came after a change in advice which it received this summer.

The number of schools on the national closure list could yet rise, as it is not clear whether all establishments have completed their survey. It has been reported that more than 50 schools have already put mitigations in place.
