Manor Way Ventilation Investigation by our Pupil Leader Groups


Some Pupil Leader Groups from Manor Way site have recently been conducting an investigation into ventilation around the site, as our old Victorian school building there are traditional sash windows which do not allow as much air to flow through as we would like. 
Supported by the JLT, our Eco-Squad class reps have been measuring the CO2 levels in each class using our measuring devices.

Next our Premises Personnel team conducted a search of the building to see if there was strong evidence to suggest CO2 levels should be higher in rooms where there are more old-style windows and therefore suggesting less ventilation. Then the Digital Leaders met to discuss how best we can present the data collected; they learnt how to use Excel to create tables and graphs. Finally, our JLT reps met to plan persuasive letters to send to the council in order to get more support for changing our windows.

Here some photos from the teams at work...
