Secondary Resources

As a route into climate and global learning we've put together an inspiring secondary and colleges resource programme which will be made up of 10 Eco-Schools Topics.

There is rarely a straightforward unanimous solution to address climate change and sustainability challenges. One resource designed to broaden understanding of the 10 eco-topics and signpost to possible actions is team debates. Team debates are a great way to encourage students to consider complex issues, varied opinions and possible solutions.

Note: We aim to keep all our resources up to date but webpages can change and there is always new research and data. Please do share with us any relevant material.

  • Transport

    'Low Traffic Neighbourhoods are good for the local community'.

    Encourage your students to research the different opinions and debate this statement.

    'Plastic bottled water should be banned where tap water is safe to drink.'

    Agree or disagree? Statements like this are rarely black and white.
