Reminders

Your school has three electricity meters. It has come to our attention that data for MPAN 1050000313582 is estimated. This will be raised with the MAT. In the meantime, this meter's data has been removed from your account. Data for meter, 1023545804639 supplying the flood lights also stopped in November 2024. As a result, your account does not show your school's total electricity usage at the moment.
