My friend Chris Deane, who has died of a heart attack aged 73, was an inspirational teacher and headteacher before taking up an active role in local politics after he retired.
Born in Catford, south-east London, Chris was the second youngest of the six children of Charles Deane, a receptionist at the Press Club in Fleet Street, and Phyllis (nee Warren), an accounts clerk at Robertson’s Preserves.
The repairs survey, which involved visits to 22,000 state schools starting in 2017, has been repeatedly delayed. Its final publication may be part of an effort by the DfE to wring more funding for repairs from the Treasury in the comprehensive spending review later this year.
The report stated that âremedial work to repair or replace all defective elementsâ will cost £11.4bn, while a report by the National Audit Office in 2017 estimated that it would cost £6.7bn to return all school buildings to satisfactory condition.
âWhile this was calculated on a slightly different basis, this does demonstrate that the overall condition need in the estate has grown over the last six years,â the report said in comparing the NAOâs results with its own findings.
