Green-Schools Projects
Green-Schools Projects are designed for schools that have completed all ten core Green-Schools themes. This phase of Green-Schools is grounded in active learning, critical thinking and inquiry-based learning, giving students an immersive and engaging opportunity to continue their sustainability journey through student-led projects. Schools begin by revisiting the Litter and Waste theme and will be assigned a project related to this theme for example food detectives or fast fashion. As projects develop, up to three project options will be made available per theme. You will receive materials providing information on how best to implement the Green-Schools project for each theme below. This may vary dependent on Green-School capacity. Upon renewal of the award, schools will be invited to undertake a different GSP theme related to water or travel for example. Green Flags will continue to be renewed every two years through the standard renewal application and assessment process. While we recommend that one class, or the Green-Schools Committee and Coordinator, leads the project, there will be many opportunities for the wider school community to become involved.
