Cassop Primary is a village school in County Durham. It has successfully used sustainable energy technology within its premises, and integrated the understanding gained into the curriculum and ethos of the school. The sustainability programme began in 1995, with light bulbs replaced by compact fluorescents, a recycling drive and installation of cavity wall insulation.
Cassop used its Ashden Award funds towards the refurbishment and equipment of a classroom as a dedicated sustainable energy centre, for use by Cassop pupils and visiting schools.
