Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what the Department’s target date is for ensuring that all schools and colleges in England are free from reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete.

​​The government has set out its plans to permanently remove reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete (RAAC) from schools and colleges.

​By the end of this Parliament, every school and college in England that is not being fully or substantially rebuilt will be RAAC-free.

​Alongside this, every school needing to be rebuilt through the School Rebuilding Programme, will be in delivery, with half having started already.
