Abstract

In April 2022, the government released their strategy for the education and children’s services systems relating to sustainability and climate change. The first of the strategic aims in this document was that the UK achieve excellence in education and skills for a changing world, preparing all young people for a world impacted by climate change. In response to this UWE, Bristol’s Initial Teacher Training programme looked for opportunities to further enhance student teacher experiences in the teaching of sustainability within its university course. This included a three day ‘take over’ school placement for third year undergraduates with the Sustainable Development Goals as the starting point.
