Cabinet members were told that no schools were affected and that three buildings that do contain the concrete are not causing concern.
No East Ayrshire Schools are affected by the potentially dangerous concrete supports, according to officials.
SNP Councillor Graham Barton raised the issue at Cabinet last Wednesday. He said: “These panels were used generally between the 1950s and 80s and were mainly used in the flat roof construction. The panels had a life expectancy of around 30 years and could become weak over time. “Since 2012 the SNP Administration has spent over £300 million upgrading their education estate with 26 new, refurbished or extended schools.
He said that monitoring and inspection arrangements had been put in place across the industry and with the school estate.
