Eco Schools

Eco-Schools is the world’s largest environmental education programme. It is a pupil-led initiative with the aim to make environmental awareness and action an intrinsic part of the life and ethos of a school. Eco-Schools endeavours to extend learning beyond the classroom and develop responsible attitudes and commitment, both at home and in the wider community.
