Our school is called Schoohovens College AP and is a private school which is welcome for anyone. The AP is added because we have two locations. We have one school at the Vlisterweg en one at the Albert Plesmanstraat. Our school includes around the 910 students and three levels of difficulty. We have VMBO-t, which is the lowest degree of difficulty on our school, HAVO and VWO. HAVO is the second most difficult level and VWO is the hardest level. We also have a bilingual program called TTO which is actually just VWO but the students get 60% of their subject in English. The school has a science lab, a P.E. hall, a cafeteria, a library and a lot of classrooms of course. Our school is also aware of its energy-use and therefore quite energy-saving
|
Our school has so-called Building Management System What this does is giving us the ability to control the heating system so that when we don’t need a warm classroom, it turns off. So in the breaks and when the students are done with school the heating system is turned off or set lower so we won’t waste so much energy on heating. Same goes for the ventilation systems.
We are also planning to buy several solar-panels for on the roof of the school. Also most of the lamps in the classrooms will be replaced by LED-lamps so there will be less electricity used for lightning. At last the school is planning to isolate the walls so most of the warmt is being kept in the classrooms. |
