Les Beaucamps is falling apart
LES Beaucamps High School needs to be rebuilt because it is literally falling apart, the Education Department has said.
The department has admitted in this month’s Billet d’Etat that a large window had recently fallen out of a first floor classroom because the rivets holding it had rusted through.
‘The weight of the window was such that it could easily have caused a fatal accident if anyone had been standing beneath it,’ said Education minister Carol Steere.
‘As a result, safety chains are now having to be fixed to more than 280 windows and many windows are now not able to be opened, causing major ventilation and cooling problems.’
Education has produced a report, to be debated at this month’s States meeting, which highlights the urgent need for the rebuilding of the 50-year-old school.
It puts the department’s case forward before March’s capital spending prioritisation debate when deputies will decide which major projects will receive immediate funding. (from thisisguernsey)
Its been a typical states fob off, this school should of been upgraded years ago...
