Modern Slavery Statement

2026 Modern Slavery Statement

Solar Options for Schools Limited is a private limited company and Solar for Schools CBS Limited (SFS) is a not-for-profit community benefit society, incorporated in England and Wales. We trade as Solar for Schools, developing solar power PV systems on schools in the UK and overseas.

This 2026 statement has been issued in accordance with the Modern Slavery Act 2015 (“Act”) and sets out the steps we have taken to address the risk of slavery or human trafficking occurring in Solar for Schools’ supply chain or within its own operations.

This statement sets out our activities and work on Modern Slavery completed within the financial year which ended 31 December 2025.

Our high regard and respect for human rights are a top priority for Solar for Schools. We are convinced that sustainable economic operations are only possible by acting ethically and with integrity. We are fully committed to our responsibility for human rights in the context of our business operations.

We affirm our commitment to the relevant international conventions and declarations, in particular the International Human Rights Charter and core labour standards of the International Labour Organisations. We structure our business operations in line with the UN Guiding Principles for Business and Human Rights (UNGP) and for the UN Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDGs).

We work to ensure good working conditions for our employees, those working for sub-contractors and those in our procurement chain. Serious breaches of human rights, such as child or forced labour are unacceptable. Tolerance and non-discriminatory co-operation are essential to us. We promote equal opportunity and collaboration for all employees and value cultural diversity, respectful interactions with each other and mutual respect. If a person’s safety is jeopardised, we would react immediately, appropriately, and adequately.

Given the business risk of modern slavery, we are focused on detecting any risks, reporting, and acting to mitigate any human rights risks. To this end we encourage whistleblowing and grievance practices as part of our principle to combat slavery and human trafficking to report modern slavery concerns or incidents; And we promote the use of sustainability and compliance regulations from sub-contractors and those in our procurement supply chains.

This sets out Solar for Schools’ expectations of our business relationships and the conduct we expect with respect to social, compliance and modern slavery standards.

Solar for Schools maintains its zero-tolerance approach to any form of modern slavery, and this is enshrined as one of the core principles when working with supply chains. However, Solar for Schools acknowledges that modern slavery exists and is a risk to all businesses. To that end, during the course of 2026, Solar for Schools Limited will continue to monitor the modern slavery risk of its supplier base and suggest actions to mitigate any risks arising.

In the event that any of Solar for Schools’ business partners are found to be engaging in slavery or other unethical working practices, it will take steps to address those issues, drive forward improved standards and, if necessary, terminate its relationships with any such business partners.

Approved by the Board of Solar Options for Schools Ltd and Solar for Schools CBS Ltd in January 2026.
