Review progress

Watch out - the heating or hot water is running during the current school holidays! Up to Wednesday 19 Feb 2025 the school used 17,000 kWh of gas during this holiday, which has cost £520 and generated 3,200 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 31,000 kWh, costing £940 and generating 5,700 kg CO2.
