‘We have parents complaining their children have bladder issues because children refuse to go to the toilet during the day.’ 7NEWS
A parliamentary upper house education committee is examining the planning and delivery of school infrastructure, following reports from Auditor-General Margaret Crawford last year.
Some school toilets don’t have working soap dispensers, the doors don’t lock, they’re dark and they stink from decades worth of urine soaking into tiling grout, Hilsz said.In its submission to the committee, Concord High School Parents and Citizens Association noted its school was short of toilets and demountable bathrooms had been installed, with no plan to replace them.
Parents were not happy they were being forced to use their free time to apply for grants to fix toilets at their children’s schools.“This is a state government workplace health and safety responsibility,” their submission read. When a new build took place there were project reference groups established, which would have only one community representative, who would have to sign a non-disclosure agreement preventing them talking to anyone else about what would be built.
