Fellowes, with partnership of WeAreTeachers, conducted a survey of over 1,000 teachers regarding their perception of the air quality in their classrooms. The results show that teachers need and expect clean air not only for their own performance but of that of their students.
Because teachers work in high occupancy classrooms that are often hotspots for the spread of illness, 97% of agree that they can benefit significantly from the incorporation of IAQ into workplace well-being programs. Unfortunately, only 37% of teachers believe that their school is currently planning to make the necessary IAQ improvements to their classroom.
