<p>The guidance for education settings with confirmed RAAC in their buildings makes
clear that schools should consider educational, safeguarding and wellbeing impacts
for pupils and do their best to minimise the amount and length of any disruption to
education, with support from their caseworker. The guidance is available at: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/reinforced-autoclaved-aerated-concrete-guidance-for-responsible-bodies-and-education-settings-with-confirmed-raac"
target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/reinforced-autoclaved-aerated-concrete-guidance-for-responsible-bodies-and-education-settings-with-confirmed-raac</a>.</p><p>The
Department’s priority is that pupils remain in face to face education or can return
to it as soon as possible. Where schools do need to deliver education remotely, they
are likely to already have established plans in place that have worked well for them,
including through the COVID-19 pandemic. The Department has produced guidance to support
schools to provide high-quality remote education, which is available at: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/providing-remote-education-guidance-for-schools"
target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/providing-remote-education-guidance-for-schools</a>.</p><p>This
guidance recommends that schools have systems for checking, daily, whether pupils
are safe at home and engaging with their remote education. To help schools in doing
that, the Department has brought together various sources of government support at:
