FINAL safety checks are being carried out at York schools this weekend after some schools in England have been forced to close due to safety fears.

It comes as some buildings made with a certain type of concrete have been found to be at risk of collapsing.

The government has urged 150 schools across England which contain reinforced autoclaved aerated concrete (RAAC) to close affected buildings.

Schools that will be shut for a period of time will see children and teachers reallocated to another space so teaching can continue.
