Policy on switching off lights, computers, and other information technology equipment.
Objectives
This policy aims to reduce electricity wasted in the school by lights and other electrical appliances being used unnecessarily or left on when not in use.
In order to increase the amount of natural light in classrooms.
We will:
● Ensure that windows are clear of displays, posters and furniture to allow the maximum amount of natural light.
● Nominate a pupil per classroom to act as the lighting monitor.
● Working with the teacher, the lighting monitor should ensure the best use of blinds. For example, vertical blinds can be altered to direct sunlight away from computer screens and whiteboards whilst still allowing diffuse daylight to enter the room. We will try to avoid situations where blinds are closed and lights are on.
In order to reduce lights being switched on unnecessarily.
We will:
● Task the lighting monitors to keep an eye on the level of daylight throughout the school day; if there is an adequate amount of daylight to work comfortably, the lighting monitor should switch off the lights.
In order to ensure that lights are not being left on when not in use
We will:
● Make sure the lighting monitor switches the classroom lights off when the class leaves the room
● Allow lighting monitors to switch off lights in rooms around the school that are not being used, e.g. the Green Room, he hall, the gym, intervention rooms, breakout spaces etc.
Responsibilities and Monitoring
Each class will have a lighting monitor who will monitor the lighting in their classroom.
The Eco Team will do spot checks on use of lighting and other electrical appliances throughout the term.
The Eco Team will report to the Site Manager, Pastoral teacher and Headteacher about areas where lights and other electrical appliances are being left on. This will be then presented and discussed in assemblies and staff meetings as appropriate.

Gall cystadleuaeth ysgol gyfan godi ymwybyddiaeth o'ch ymdrechion effeithlonrwydd ynni ac annog disgyblion i gymryd rhan yn yr ysgol a hefyd gartref. Rhowch 100 pwynt i bob dosbarth ar ddechrau'r gystadleuaeth. Arolygwch y goleuadau bob dydd ac os gadewir goleuadau yn eu parth neu ystafell ddosbarth benodol ymlaen, caiff pwyntiau eu tynnu o'u sgôr.
