Reducing energy use has many advantages for schools – it saves money, reduces carbon emissions (helping to combat climate change), improves the learning environment and can enhance a school’s reputation.

To be really effective, the whole school must be involved in energy saving. This guide outlines an approach to energy management which involves pupils, teachers and other staff. By motivating staff and pupils through lessons, as well as providing practical advice on how to go about saving energy, a whole school approach to energy management can reduce the school’s carbon footprint and provide long-term benefits for the school, its people and the environment.
