Sustainable Schools

 

The School Improvement Service is fully committed to supporting the national Framework for Sustainable Schools. Information on this can be found at: www.teachernet.gov.uk/sustainableschools

 

Working in co-operation with Lincolnshire County Council we aim to:

  • Assist schools to develop a curriculum and whole school approach to enhance students’ understanding of sustainable development.
  • Help schools evaluate their own sustainable development performance in order to establish policies and practices.
  • Assist schools to identify ways to promote sustainable development through their communications, services, contracts and partnerships with key stakeholders.

Two Sustainable Schools Advisors are available to support you. They have  a handbook based around the Framework for Sustainable Schools giving ideas, contacts, grants, curriculum resources and showcasing the great work already happening in Lincolnshire schools. Click on the icon to the right to access the handbook page.

 

An environmental audit of your school is a good activity for your students to undertake to be able to then construct an action plan for your school. This is also an essential part of the Eco-schools programme. The advisors have developed new Environmental Audit sheets that you may wish to use.
