A school collapse in England that causes death or injury is "very likely" - but the government does not have sufficient information to manage "critical" risks to the safety of pupils and staff, a watchdog has warned.
Around 700,000 children in England are attending schools that need major repairs after years of underfunding, the National Audit Office (NAO) said.
The head of the public spending watchdog said that, despite assessing the possibility of building collapse or failure causing death or injury as "critical and very likely" in 2021, the Department for Education (DfE) "has not been able to reduce this risk".
Why dont they do the simple thing and give the repair work to their mates ? Of course tory kids are well looked after in expensive private schools. The falling down schools cater for poor kids.
Poor kids might as well be getting shot in AMerican schools. They would probably be safer.
If you accept that the good management of public assets is a basic task of govt then,once again, the tories have failed miserably.
