Sustainability & Net Zero Training for Schools

Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting

By formally reporting your school’s carbon emissions, you’ll get a clear and detailed picture of where you’re at and where you need to be. Depending on the size of your school or MAT, there’ll likely be a legal requirement for reporting, too. The UK government’s Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting (SECR) policy provides a framework for you to report the data. This course will help you understand and follow the framework so you can create useful and insightful reports.

Learning outcomes:

Recognise the basics of greenhouse gas reporting and the three scopes, so you can effectively gather GHG emissions data 
Identify what SECR is to determine if it’s mandatory or voluntary for your school or MAT 
Identify what information you need to disclose in your SECR and how to prepare the data, so you can complete a reporting template
