Well done, you are making progress towards achieving your target to reduce your electricity usage!

Review progress

Last year you used 12,000 kWh of gas and 13,000 kWh of electricity in the Easter 2025 holidays. Turn off your heating, hot water and electrical appliances to save around £3,100 this year. 

Watch out! Up to Sunday 5 Apr 2026 the school used 5,900 kWh of electricity during this holiday, which has cost £1,200 and generated 570 kg CO2. Make sure lights and electrical equipment are switched off to prevent further waste.

If you choose to leave electrical equipment running, by the end of the holidays you will have used 11,000 kWh, costing £2,200 and generating 1,100 kg CO2.
