Let’s Go Zero- funded Sustainability Lead Training (and webinar February 2025)

Some great funded national training available which EKST colleagues could access- please see below re Sustainability Lead Training and separate webinar on climate action plans (which as you know all schools and universities need to have in place) as well as sign up links. They’ve confirmed with me that the Lead Training can be accessed by independent as well as state schools- this has also been shared via the EKSTn newsletter.

Free sustainability lead training

Starting 11 March, our brand new training programme will support school staff members looking to boost their confidence and understanding of climate change and carbon emissions.

The course will focus on key topics like recycling, pollution, climate change and how to inspire the next generation to take action on environmental issues.

Your accredited training will cover vital climate-related topics, which will give you:

  • The knowledge, confidence and enthusiasm to guide your school in its climate journey
  • Ideas for ways you can adjust your school’s climate action plan
  • On-going support from one of our expert Climate Action Advisors
  • Become certified by the internationally recognised Carbon Literacy Project

Here to help: our Climate Action Advisors

As you most likely know, the Department for Education (DfE) has stated that all schools should have a climate action plan and sustainability lead in place by this September.

The good news is that Let’s Go Zero’s Climate Action Advisors can offer you free guidance and support to help you get started.
