Starting your school’s carbon reduction journey can be daunting, but with Count Your Carbon, it’s easy! Once registered, Count Your Carbon guides you through calculating your carbon footprint, reviewing your data, and creating a decarbonisation plan. To begin, you’ll need to gather data about eleven operational areas and input this into the calculator. Then, you’ll receive a detailed footprint report and decarbonisation planning resources, equipping you with the information you need to put a clear plan in place to reduce your setting’s emissions.  

Count Your Carbon is not only helping individual settings, but the entire UK education sector, to decarbonise. The more settings that join, the stronger our dataset becomes – giving us a clearer picture of the sector’s carbon impact and helping drive real change. 

If you’re part of a local authority, multi-academy trust, faith group, or other school grouping, we can share data with you to help you take a strategic, informed approach to decarbonisation across your settings.
