Leak at school keeps children inside

We as the public are given restrictions but when we want to complain about leaks, we get a reference number.

But just try and get the council to answer their phones.

We are a primary school in Birch Acres and the pre-school Grade RR class can now no longer go outside to play in their play area due to the water running into it from the underground water leak on the pavement.

Unfortunately maintenance no longer exists. Does the council not understand that the longer they take the worse the problem becomes?
