Asbestos threat at schools

Apr 18, 2007 | Richard Garner | The Independent

Thousands of pupils and teachers will be at risk of exposure to deadly asbestos fumes for years. Up to 13,000 state schools still contain asbestos, according to figures obtained under the Freedom of Information Act.

The figures indicate more than three million children are at risk. In addition, despite the Government's £45bn programme to refurbish every secondary school and half of England's primary schools, there is no guarantee asbestos will be eliminated from buildings.

The figures have been obtained by Michael Lees,an anti-asbestos campaigner whose wife died of mesothelioma after 30 years teaching in a primary school.
