About SAMHE

SAMHE (pronounced ‘Sammy’!) is an exciting new project designed WITH and FOR schools. It involves scientists from 6 institutions across the UK and is supported by DfE.

Poor air quality impacts pupils’ health and concentration, affecting attendance and attainment. SAMHE will provide evidence for better national policies and practice. But more than that, it enables pupils to interact with real world data about their environment and gives them agency to take informed action.

If you work or study at a UK school (excluding early years-only schools), you can get involved! This page explains what being involved could look like for your school. (Note – the final date to register to receive a SAMHE monitor is 31 May 2024).
