Southampton Schools Climate Action Planning

Fully funded 'Climate Action Plan' planning session - a must for all schools and education settings

This one-day fully funded training course has been designed specifically for schools and all education settings in Southampton to learn more about net zero and to help write a climate action plan to meet the requirement set by government. The government strategy states: “By 2025, all education settings will have nominated a sustainability lead and put in place a climate action plan”. This includes early years settings, schools, multi-academy trusts, colleges, and universities.

What will be covered:

• Introduction to greenhouse gases and climate change
• Terminology, key facts, and targets
• Calculating your carbon footprint
• Southampton school specific case study example
• Creating your school’s specific climate action plan

Schools that attended the first sessions said they found the day 'very informative and relevant' with plenty of 'examples of actions to take'.

Some simple sustainability steps can enrich your curriculum, empower pupils, and boost your Ofsted rating!
