The Schools Water Efficiency Program (SWEP) is a voluntary program which is open to all schools within Victoria. Currently in its second phase, the program enables schools to continuously track their water usage through a water data logger. The data is then accessed by facility managers, teachers and students through an interactive website. SWEP enables schools to thoroughly monitor water usage and detect leaks so they can be rectified, allowing schools to save water and in most cases save money as well. The program also provides students an opportunity to learn about water efficiency through maths concepts such as measurement and data in a tangible and realistic environment.

The original program was launched in 2006 and assisted more than 1700 schools across Victoria to save water and money and to also raise awareness of water conservation. This phase of SWEP is supported by the Water Learn it Live it curriculum (data logging module) and will operate over a minimum of three years.
