Comments from our CEO, Mark Sait, were recently featured in two education online magazines discussing recent teacher pay rises and how they could be upped even more:
Teachers to Get 3.1% Pay Rise – But They Could Earn More with Energy Cuts
Energy Cuts have the potential for more money to be pumped into our education system
“It’s of course great news that our hard-working teachers and tutors are receiving a large wage increase,” Mark Sait, CEO for SaveMoneyCutCarbon says.
“However, there are more than a few additional ways for extra funds to find their way into education.”
“Small changes can be made by all schools and colleges to create safer, more efficient energy choices”.
“Our team has seen educational bodies waste thousands of pounds unnecessarily on outdated electricity and water systems,” he says.
“Energy expenditure per pupil, per school will vary. However, figures suggest that secondary schools are likely spending up to £65 per student in terms of electric, gas and water. This is a figure which can be drastically slashed, providing bodies are willing to make reasonable changes.”
