I worked in schools until last year, so this doesn’t surprise me. A huge number of schools and hospitals were built in the 1960s and 70s during the baby boom, but the were built on the cheap with an expected lifetime of about thirty years. Most of those schools are still standing. There was a program of rebuilding from 2000 to 2012 but it got cancelled. Why spend £10m on a new school building, when you can spend £2m/year patching up the old one?
