Becoming a sustainable school - a research project

Working with the Manchester Institute of Education at the University of Manchester MEEN is researching Greater Manchester high and primary schools to discover how they plan to help the region reach its Zero Carbon target by 2038.

The aim is to find out whether members of the Senior Leadership Teams have a vision for 2038; what they have already done on the journey towards zero carbon; what the key challenges are and what help they need in order to progress. Once the data has been collected the aim is to hold an event bringing together schools, programmes, providers and potential funders to help share good news stories and to create new partnerships and support systems.

Consequently, we are looking to run on-line interviews with members of schools' Senior Leadership Teams. If you are from a Greater Manchester school and would like to participate please email raichael.lock@manchester.ac.uk. We would very much welcome the opportunity to listen, gather information and spread any findings across the network. All data will be anonymised.
