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 49,000 kWh of gas during this holiday, which has cost £3,700 and generated 8,900 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 88,000 kWh, costing £6,700 and generating 16,000 kg CO2.
