D&A College Prospectus 2025-26

net zero the place to make your mark Do you care about the climate emergency? We do!

We are committed to tackling the climate emergency and launched our Climate Emergency Action Plan in early 2022 mapping out how we are going to work towards achieving Net Zero by 2045. We have been working hard over the last 14 years and have reduced our carbon footprint by an incredible 66%. We have installed a range of sustainable technologies such as a biomass plant at Arbroath Campus and solar panels and air source heat pumps at Kingsway Campus. We have also installed rainwater harvesting, undertaken an LED lighting replacement programme on all campuses and became the first college in Scotland to remove all disposable cups from our campuses and promote the use of crockery and reusable cups. We have installed plastic roads and car parks using recycled plastics, removed the sale of plastic bottled drinks, installed access to free mains water stations and have replaced all takeaway containers with products which are composted on site. We can’t do this without everyone doing their bit. So, are you with us? Of course you are.
