All state schools and colleges in England will receive portable carbon dioxide monitors from next month to help tackle the spread of coronavirus.

The £25 million government scheme will allow staff to ‘quickly’ identify where classroom ventilation needs to be improved.

The majority of the 300,000 portable monitors – which measure airflow – will become available over the autumn term in a bid to avoid disruption to lessons when pupils return after the summer break.

They will be provided to all state-funded education settings, including nursery schools, but special schools and alternative provision will be prioritised due to high numbers of vulnerable pupils.

Ministers have already launched a trial of air purifiers in schools in Bradford, which is designed to assess whether they can reduce the risk of Covid-19 transmission.

Education Secretary Gavin Williamson said yesterday: ‘By keeping up simple measures such as ventilation and testing, young people can now enjoy more freedom at school and college.’
