Review progress

Watch out - the heating or hot water is running during the current school holidays! Up to Monday 21 Apr 2025 the school used 6,200 kWh of gas during this holiday, which has cost £190 and generated 1,100 kg CO2. Make sure both your heating and hot water are switched off to prevent further waste.

If you choose to leave your heating and/or hot water running, by the end of the holidays you will have used 10,000 kWh, costing £300 and generating 1,800 kg CO2.
