Label lights and appliances to show which should be left on or turned off

Damers First School, Monday, 09 February 2026
30 points 12 pupils Change-maker KS1, KS2, KS3, KS4, KS5

We have already used this activity in our school. We put red and green stickers on the light switches to say which ones can go on and which one's need to stay off. Because the green stickers are used a lot, we needed to go round the school and reapply them so that people would keep to using the correct lights only.

Activity description

Pupils will identify all IT equipment, appliances and lighting throughout the school and indicate which can be turned off using a traffic light coding system.
