This paper considers the topic of natural ventilation in school buildings that is faced not only for energy saving, but also for the fundamental exigency of the indoor comfort. This analysis is developed by measuring the concentration of carbon dioxide as a significant indicator of IAQ when pollution is mainly due to the presence of people. In this paper are presented the results of a monitoring campaign of the CO2 levels carried on in classrooms. The measures show the criticality of IAQ with values often much higher than the limits specified by standard, but also the possibility to act effectively with the manual ventilation without excesses that could create comfort problems or waste of energy.
