GO GREEN: Environment-conscious students have helped a high school win a green technology award.

Painsley Catholic College in Cheadle is the latest school nationwide to receive education company RM’s Green Technology Award, which recognises schools that are using energy-saving computers. Martin Cliffe, head of IT support at Painsley Catholic College, said: “It is a reflection of our commitment to using the most environmentally-friendly technology on the market.

An example of how it’s not only the enterprises looking at ‘Green IT’, using energy efficient hardware, with effective configuration can transform the way you provision and supply the IT. Not only can Green IT reduce your environmental impact, it can reduce your support costs, we need to look at the supply and demand chain of the IT service – what is it we need and how can we deliver at a lower cost and more effectively? It will be interesting to see what technologies/best practice were used.
