School air quality sensors
To raise awareness of air quality Birmingham City Council is offering schools across Birmingham an air quality sensor. This project is in two phases, the first phase began in early 2022 which aimed at deploying one sensor in a school in every council ward in the city, a total of 69 sensors.
The sensors have been supplied by Airly and monitor for a range of pollutants including Nitrogen Dioxide and Particulate.
Airly provides an interactive map of the sensors and there is also an App available for Android, Apple and Huawei.
The second phase of the project is due to begin in late 2023 where every school in the city will be offered an air quality sensor.
