\u201cIf you go through the numbers that I\u2019ve said, of the 90 percent that have come back only 1 percent of them have RAAC, so if you wanted to try and give an order of magnitude we\u2019re talking much less than that\u201d.<\/p>\n
Mr Robinson did the maths for Today listeners and clarified that meant 150 schools may have RAAC despite not having completed surveys.<\/p>\n
There are also 450 schools suspected to be containing RAAC but may not be checked until December.<\/p>\n
The Education Secretary said they will now all be inspected \u201cin the next two weeks\u201d, after an increase in the number of building surveyors.<\/p>\n

So it wasn’t just a risk, it was actually starting to happen. So it was frustrating.\u201d<\/p>\n Ms Keegan said three incidents over the summer where RAAC had \u201cfailed\u201d caused the last-minute move by the Government, sparking chaos for thousands of parents.<\/p>\n She said the Government has spent \u00a315billion on capital spending on schools since 2015.<\/p>\n
