Council to spend £500,000 on urgent school repairs

Urgent repairs to a secondary school will cost a council just over half a million pounds.

A survey carried out at Ysgol Greenhill in Tenby found 750 areas of concrete in "poor condition" with cracks in both brickwork and concrete slabs.

Pembrokeshire council leader Jon Harvey approved the £555,946 to rectify "external wall concrete frame failure" at the school.

The decision was published on Wednesday afternoon on the council's website in a highly unusual move.
