Groundwork works with schools to deliver innovative environmental education, transform school grounds and re-engage disaffected young people into education.
Our specialist education practitioners work with all school stakeholders including governors, bursars and premises officers together with teachers, classroom assistants and often advise schools on potential sources of funding to cover sustainable development activity.
Our work with schoolchildren in school links to the national curriculum and helps to illustrate how our individual actions can make a difference to the local and global environment. Teaching young people about their impact on the planet is the first step to changing that behaviour for the better.
We also work with schools to support ‘at risk’ young people, providing them with positive experiences and building the skills that will allow them to move forwards with education, employment or training.
We can help your school become more sustainable
We use the environment to help re-engage pupils with education - both within the school grounds and outside of the usual educational system.
Are your school grounds providing an educational and healthy environment?

This was a wonderful experience for the children – some had not been to the woods before
