Collingwood School and Media Arts College is committed to educating our pupils about environmental concerns and the importance of living sustainably. Healthy is a key school value at our school:

We provide opportunities to go beyond personal health and consider a ‘healthy world’. Through our curriculum and additional provision, children explore not just their role in helping the environment but in how they can shape their community and the world they will grow up in.

Our climate change team consists of: 

  • Ben Alpin Assistant head Woodlands – Climate lead
  • The School Business Manager (sustainability lead) 
  • Humanities Lead teacher
  • Outdoor Learning team
  • Caretaker 
  • Green Team/Eco Warriors (pupil group)
 
 

The plan is split into two sections: 

  • Section 1: Commitment to continue with the actions we are already taking 
  • Section 2: Action Plan for change
