Hundreds more school buildings in England might be crumbling and unsafe, Britain's education minister said on Monday, after authorities ordered 104 schools to shut buildings with old and weak concrete.
The revelations of crumbling school buildings just days before the start of a new term has sparked anger among parents and teachers, and represent a new political headache for Prime Minister Rishi Sunak ahead of an election expected next year.
Education Secretary Gillian Keegan said the government was still waiting on responses from around 10% of the 15,000 schools in England which were sent surveys to identify those at risk. A majority of the currently affected schools would still be able to operate largely normally, the government has said.
