Question to the Department for Education:
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many and what proportion of schools in Bristol have received carbon dioxide monitors.
During the Autumn term, the department provided CO2 monitors to all state-funded education providers, including early years, schools and further education colleges, backed by £25 million in government funding.
We have now delivered on our public commitment with over 353,000 monitors delivered in the Autumn term. Feedback suggests that schools are finding the monitors helpful to manage ventilation and, in the majority of providers, existing ventilation measures are sufficient.
