It brings the total number of schools and colleges here with RAAC to 12, official figures reveal

Three more schools in Greater Manchester - two primaries and a secondary - have been added to the Government's official list of educational settings with confirmed reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete .

Nationally, the number of educational settings in England where the collapse-risk concrete has been found has risen, with another 43 schools and colleges now identified as having RAAC on site. Overall, 214 educational settings in England have now been confirmed with the concrete as of October 16, the DfE said.

Education Secretary Gillian Keegan said: "Thanks to the hard work of school and college leaders, 202 settings are providing full time face-to-face education for all pupils. Twelve settings have hybrid arrangements in place. Responsible bodies have submitted responses to the questionnaire for 99.9 per cent of schools and colleges with blocks built in the target era, Ms Keegan said. She added that the DfE is in contact with those responsible bodies and education settings to resolve 17 remaining responses to the questionnaire.

"It should not have to fall to the NEU to chase the DfE for information they pledged to regularly provide."
