Schools are at the heart of our sustainable future — shaping the next generation and modelling positive change. In this session, you’ll learn how a Climate Action Plan can help your school reduce its carbon footprint, save money, improve learning environments, and strengthen community engagement. You’ll hear from our advisors and from schools already on their journey to zero carbon — with real examples, lessons learned, and ideas you can use straight away.
This session will cover:
- What Climate Action Plans are — and how they fit within the DfE’s Sustainability and Climate Change Strategy
- Why taking climate action in schools matters for pupils, staff, and communities
- How to get started: simple first steps to build a strong foundation
- The four pillars of an outstanding Climate Action Plan
- Time for questions and sharing
Suitable for: All members. This session is also open to members of unions taking part in the Union Year of Climate Action
