<p>The department has recently published guidance, Building Bulletin 101 (BB101),
on achieving good indoor air quality in new and refurbished schools. BB101 promotes
best practice in controlling both external and internal pollutants and setting maximum
standards for levels of pollutants in classrooms. The published guidance for school
design and construction can be found at: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/guidance/school-design-and-construction"
target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/guidance/school-design-and-construction</a>.</p><p>Outdoor
air quality is the responsibility of local authorities who should prepare air quality
action plans to ensure the level of pollutants is reduced. In January 2019, the Government
published the Clean Air Strategy setting out plans to deal with all sources of pollution.</p>
