Air Quality monitoring

We occasionally experience poor air quality in Hangzhou. Therefore, to ensure that our pupils can learn in a safe environment, we regularly monitor pollution levels. The Air Quality Index (AQI) is measured at Chengxiang Town, Hangzhou, the closest station to our school. We review the AQI twice per day at the beginning of the day, and before lunch. The readings are then e-mailed to all staff, so that the appropriate measures can be implemented.
