This short video explains how to find and choose an LED lighting contractor for your school.

This guidance is especially helpful if your school is involved in our low-interest loan scheme. However, any school planning to install LED lighting can use this advice.

What the video covers

The video explains:

  • how to engage lighting contractors based on your school’s needs
  • what happens during a contractor site visit
  • how to compare quotes and what information to check

Why install LED lighting

LED lights:

  • use around 60 per cent less energy than traditional light bulbs
  • last much longer, which reduces maintenance and replacement costs

This can help you save money and reduce your school’s carbon footprint.

Our low-interest loan scheme

We offered county-maintained schools the chance to apply for an interest-free loan to help install:

  • LED lighting
  • solar photovoltaic panels

This offer is currently closed to new applicants.
