Empowering Schools to Save Energy

Switch Off Fortnight is an exciting opportunity for schools to take action on energy saving while engaging students in meaningful climate education. The Pod website offers a wealth of teaching resources to help schools make the most of this annual campaign.

Designed for both primary and secondary schools, the resources are curriculum-linked and packed with fun, interactive content. Teachers can download lesson plans, activities, and assembly presentations tailored to promote energy-saving behaviours. These materials cover key topics such as the impact of greenhouse gas emissions, how to calculate your school's carbon footprint, and practical ways to reduce energy use.

The campaign pack provides everything schools need to participate, from posters and certificates to step-by-step guides for running Switch Off Fortnight. With these tools, teachers can inspire students to become energy-saving champions at school and at home.

Our Energy Saving Dashboard offers a platform to input gas and electricity meter readings to calculate your school's greenhouse gas emissions, adding a practical, real-world element to the learning experience. Schools that participate in Switch Off Fortnight save an average of 10% on their energy bills!

Whether your school is new to the campaign or a long-time participant, the Pod website's resources make it easy to get involved. Switch Off Fortnight is more than a campaign—it's a chance to instil lifelong energy-saving habits in students.
