Self review sheets on environmental learning
We are developing a series of statements which are intended to provide prompts for reflection about features which would be expected when a school is at an emergent, established or advanced level.  These are organised around: management of environmental learning; local, national and global links; education for sustainable development; action that promotes a greener life style.  It is intended to publish these as part of a YOE Publication.
Can you help by trying out one of these self review sheets with colleagues at school and feedback your experiences and planned actions as a result?
For more details please contact Linda Cottrell, Year of the Environment Co-ordinator, on 0121 303 1160.
Sustainable Development Teacher Workshops
An introduction to the basic ideas of sustainable development
Many teachers have expressed a need to become familiar with the basic concepts of sustainable development and to be more confident about the implications for their teaching.  As a result a series of day workshops have been planned to be held at the Development Education Centre under the title Learning Today with Tomorrow in Mind.
Full details of these workshops - and how to attend - are given on our Local and Gobal page.
For further information please contact Scott Sinclair, Development Education Centre, on 0121 472 3255.  Or visit our Contacts page.
