Dear DPO - Abbey Trust,
Thanks very much for your response to my request. It is greatly appreciated.
Upon second reading, my second question was not phrased very clearly, but I will take it from your reply that your school has no RAAC on it?
Dear Yohannes,
Yes, that is correct, the school was built in 2006 and to the best of our knowledge, has no RAAC in it.
Best wishes,
Kerry
