Sustainability and Climate Action Plan
At Shrubland Street, we have partnered with 'Let's Go Zero' which is a national campaign uniting teachers, pupils, parents and their schools to all work together to be zero carbon by 2030.
This ia a huge challenge – but transforming our schools will help safeguard the planet for future generations. Let’s Go Zero brings together UK schools who want to be zero carbon, are reducing their own climate impact, and demanding greater UK government support to achieve this goal. The campaign will show national government that there is a substantial demand amongst teachers and pupils to become zero carbon, with the potential for schools to catalyse wider change in their communities.
A key initiative of DfE’s sustainability and climate change strategy for education is ‘sustainability leadership and climate action plans’. The DfE requires all education settings to have a nominated sustainability lead and put in place a climate action plan by 2025.
