Help with s3 forms:
The s3 Sustainable Schools Self-evaluation tool can be found here and is designed to help schools assess their sustainability achievements. We can help you with the assessments and look at ways for the school to improve; facilitate specified sessions to ensure there is an integrated approach throughout the school; and offer ideas to enhance your school whilst reducing your carbon footprint and saving money.

Reduction of energy and therefore energy bills, can be an easy process within schools, if the will is there. There are some initial, simple steps which can be achieved through class projects or school councils. A nature garden or switching off lights and computers are good examples of these. Further measures are possible with help from external organisations. This might include an energy audit or installation of renewable energy technology. We can direct you to the appropriate organisations for your school’s requirements.

Preparation for Ofsted:
During inspections, Ofsted will now consider any sustainability measures which schools have begun to implement. This includes teaching content, school procurement practices and perceptible behavioural change. SusSEd Bus can advise on good practice and prepare your school for Ofsted visits and evaluations.
