How can schools move beyond one-off eco-lessons and genuinely embed sustainability in the heart of their curriculum and culture?
In this episode, Caroline Hall and Adam Sumner join us to explore how primary schools can empower pupils to think critically about their role in the world—without overwhelming them. From tackling the common barriers to making sustainability part of everyday teaching, to building a meaningful journey through the curriculum, we discuss how schools can foster collective responsibility and pupil agency.
We cover questions such as: • Why is now the moment to prioritise sustainability in schools? • How can we make space for this in an already packed curriculum? • What does it look like to embed sustainability across all subjects—not just as a ‘bolt-on’? • How do we avoid fear-based approaches and instead inspire hope and action?
Whether you’re a classroom teacher, school leader or curriculum designer, this episode offers practical insights, reflective questions and plenty of inspiration for cultivating a culture of sustainability in your school.
