As mentioned in the Sustainability and Climate Change Policy published the 21st April 2022 by the Department for Education, schools must ensure that all children develop an understanding of the world and the natural environment. They play a vital role in helping to tackle climate change and creating a better, greener world for future generations. This is why at Gramacri we thought to combine Outstanding Language Lessons with Environmental Education in the target language, which serves as both an inspiration and a call to action.
