Climate Change

Welcome to the Climate Change section of our website.  

 

“We’re starting to take action - do you want to help?”

 

Our Climate Change Action Plan has been created in response  to the government’s new Climate Change and Sustainability strategy or SCCS, DES 2022.It encourages schools to contribute to sustainability beyond the school grounds. It aims to improve the quality of learning, health and wellbeing of pupils and staff. Sources have identified that concerns about sustainability can cause anxiety and can cause people to feel overwhelmed by the situation. According to the Brundtland Report, sustainability is about “meeting the needs of the current generation without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs”.

 

We are aiming to work on the four key strategic areas as described in the government documentation:

Climate education and green skills

Decarbonisation

Adaptation and resilience

Biodiversity

 

So that we…

Prepare children for a world impacted by climate change through education

Reduce emissions and support students to be part of the transition to net zero

Adapt buildings and systems to prepare for the effects of climate change

Enhance biodiversity, improve air quality and increase access to, and connection with, nature
