Main Air Pollutants
Students spend a bigger share of their time at educational institutes than at home. The following air pollutants can be present in these places. All of them can drag down students' and staff productivity.
PM2.5
Fine dust particles you can breathe in, which may then enter the bloodstream.
CO2
At times CO2 levels go past the desired CO2 limits, particularly in educational institutes.
TVOC
Some common sources include things like glue, markers and aerosol sprays.
Ozone
Students' developing lungs are especially sensitive to ozone exposure.
PM2.5
Chalk dust, outdoor PM blowing in from windows
CO2
Breathing
Ozone
Outdoor O3 through open windows; printers and photocopiers
TVOCs
Carpets and furniture, plus craft supplies like markers, glue and paints
Who are at Risk?
Air pollution in schools and institutes poses a risk to every person on site. But some groups are impacted a great deal more heavily than healthy adults are.
Respiratory Illness
Students and staff with respiratory conditions already have a compromised respiratory system.
Teachers
Lower output, time off work and poorer concentration are some of the side effects.
Sensitive Groups
Older teachers, pregnant women and the like are at higher risk of respiratory illnesses.
Students
Unhealthy air can interfere with the growing tissue and cells of young students.

The Effects of Air Pollution - On Students
Exposure to poor air quality has been linked to a big drop in students' overall performance. In a UNICEF study report, a sample of children who were exposed to toxic air pollution showed a four-point drop in IQ by the age of 5.
Students With Clean Air
- Improved arithmetic and calculating skills
- Pupil absence went down by 10-20%
- Gains in memory, attention and IQ skills
Students Without Clean Air
- Absence rates are seen to climb higher
- Students record lower IQ levels
- Attention and concentration drop
