Evotech Air Quality is delighted to support St Ambrose RC primary school in Manchester, in their ongoing plight against playground air pollution. 

The school sits on one of Europe's busiest roads where particle pollution levels exceed WHO limits and is just one of around 6,500 schools across the UK sited in areas with high levels of air pollution. 

Our specialist engineers recently installed the award winning Airthings indoor air quality monitoring sensors along with an Airly outdoor air quality sensor. Over the coming weeks we will calibrate the devices and gather baseline data ready for pupils returning to school in September. 

Coronavirus lockdowns made way for less traffic and cleaner air but as measures are currently lifted and traffic starts to increase, the school is campaigning against a return to pre-pandemic rush-hour traffic. 

Our air quality data analysts will evaluate the data and provide alerts and reports and help St Ambrose improve their air quality to provide a safer, healthier school environment.
