Environmental Sustainability Online Seminar Wednesday 2nd April at 6pm
Has your school/academy written their Climate Action Plan yet?
The Department for Education’s sustainability and climate change strategy for education states: “By December 2025, all education settings will have nominated a sustainability lead and put in place a climate action plan”. This includes early years settings, schools, multi-academy trusts, colleges, and universities.
After DAG’s successful seminar on Environmental Sustainability in June 2024 we are following up with a Spring DAG Community Network for Governors and Trustees online seminar on Environmental Sustainability on 2nd April 2025 at 6.00pm. Nicki Schantz, Climate Ambassador South West Regional Hub Manager, will be our speaker.
The Climate Ambassador programme is a DfE supported and funded programme available to all settings in England to make progress on the development and implementation of climate action plans, whether you’re just getting
started on your climate action planning journey, or whether you have a plan in place and are looking for specific support and expertise to progress it.
The online seminar will be open to all involved in school governance across Devon so please reserve your place as soon as possible by emailing [email protected].
