Ha or hay? Please proof read?

I'm sure I made plenty of mistakes, so any help would be appreciated.

I'm not sure if "It was discovered" is said "Se sospecha", and I don't know whether haber should be conjugated to hay or ha, so if you can be help, I'd be very grateful.

Cinco mil niños fueron descubiertos en un taller ilegal haciendo fuegos artificiales y otros explosivos. Su trabajo fue muy peligroso y expuesto ellos a materiales tóxicos. Se sospecha que son muchos más talleres como este que no ha descubiertos.

If you say "fue", it means that their work had ended, so they were no longer dangerous. Surely you mean "era". You have to say "estaban expuesto", and remove that "ellos", please.

You have to say "hay", not "son", and "han descubierto", not "ha descubiertos".

"Se sospecha"

One suspects (or, more loosely, "one supposes"/"one imagines"/etc.

"Se sospecha" has nothing to do with "It was discovered"

Lindsey you're right the only correction I can think about is :

Removing the letter S in descubiertos.

Since that the past participle should end in O because it doesn't change for gender and number after haber.

P.S :I'm not a native Spanish speaker so I recommend you to wait for a native speaker to correct it for you wink
