Eco-Schools is a growing phenomenon, which encourages young people to engage in
their environment by allowing them the opportunity to actively protect it. It
starts in the classroom, it expands to the school and eventually fosters change
in the community at large. Through this programme, young people experience a
sense of achievement at being able to have a say in the environmental management
policies of their schools, ultimately steering them towards certification and
the prestige which comes with being awarded a Green Flag. The Eco-Schools
programme is an ideal way for schools to embark on a meaningful path towards
improving the environment in both the school and the local community while at
the same time having a life-long positive impact on the lives of young people,
their families, school staff and local authorities.
