Environmental education
Environmental education provides a valuable cross-curricular
learning experience and can be delivered within National Curriculum
key stages such as science. It covers eco schools, healthy
schools, ranger activities and much more.
Eco schools
Eco schools is an international award scheme for schools that
aim to promote positive environmental attitudes, action and
awareness. As well as raising the profile of the school within the
community it is also an environmental management programme that can
be incorporated into school planning.
It encourages team work and helps to create a shared
understanding of what it takes to run a school in a way that
respects and enhances the environment. The programme can help
schools to improve their environment and reduce litter, waste,
energy and water bills and promote healthier lifestyles.
Ranger service
Knowsley's rangers manage the countryside sites within the
borough for everyone to enjoy. They involve communities in their
local environment and bring environmental education programmes to
local schools and colleges. The rangers also deliver an
annual programme of events and activities including natural history
walks, sporting activities and park events that help local people
enjoy their parks and open spaces. Find out more about
