How to use Clean Air Schools Action Framework

First, fill in the basic background information of your school. If your school has not participated in our programs before then we could get in touch with you to help you know more.

Next, answer a few questions about your school in the School Air Pollution Survey. A basic understanding of your school’s operations is all you need. By answering the following questions as best as you can, you will identify the air pollution solutions that work best for your school.

Then, choose from the recommended actions. You will be presented with a selection of air pollution actions based on their relevance and potential impact, alongside symbols that indicate their relative cost and effort to implement. We suggest you choose up to two actions for your plan to start with.

Over to you! You will be presented with a clean air school action plan that also links to helpful resources and toolkits to help you to implement your chosen actions. When you have completed your first set of actions, return to the framework and add some more to your action plan to continue on your path to become a clean air school in the future.

Create your tailored air action plan in 4 simple steps. We estimate it will take about 15 minutes to complete.
