Rishi Sunak cut the budget for rebuilding schools when he was chancellor, years after ministers were told there was a danger of collapse posed by the low-strength concrete used in buildings in the post-war period, according to the former permanent secretary at the department of education.

Speaking on the BBC’s Today programme on Monday morning, Jonathan Slater said that his department warned the government in 2018 that 300 to 400 schools needed to be replaced each year because the reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete used in construction between the 1960s and 1990s only had a design life of 30 to 40 years.

“We weren’t just saying there was a significant risk of fatality, we were saying there was a critical risk to life if this programme is not funded,” he said.
