Situation
The Department for Education has recently published a sustainability strategy declaring the necessity for more climate change education in schools. 59% of UK children are very or extremely worried about climate change and more than 50% identify themselves as feeling sad, anxious, powerless, helpless, or guilty about what's happening to our planet. Despite the need to address this in schools, 70% of teachers do not feel confident teaching it.
Solution
Wicked Weather Watch empowers primary students to take action on the climate crisis. We link classes with polar explorers and scientists and give interactive workshops and talks to encourage sustainability and social change. Our workshops create a culture of sustainable action within the school and wider community. Many of our schools go on to embed sustainability within their schools and work on further environmental projects. We inspire the next generation to positively shape their own future.
