Notice Information

Notice Title

Contract for the Supply of Air Filters

Notice Description

There is consensus that DfE guidance on ventilation should reflect that of Cabinet Office, Scotland and Ireland; following the recommend use and rollout of CO2 monitors in education and childcare settings to identify areas for improved ventilation. The DfE have purchased air filtration devices to manage the SARS-CoV-2 transmission risk in poorly ventilated rooms. These devices are being reserved for those spaces that are identified as 'most in need' and where action to address ventilation issues is more complex.
