This academic year, pupils at Emanuel received international accreditation for their exceptional work in promoting sustainability and raising environmental awareness amongst their peers.

The Eco-Schools programme, established in 1994, is now implemented in over 70 countries worldwide. In 2023-24, more than 1.4 million pupils attended an Eco-School in England.

Pupils at Emanuel used Eco-Schools’ tried-and-trusted seven-step framework to create positive change. Initially, a pupil-led Eco-Committee was established: this committee took responsibility for spearheading their school’s environmental initiatives.

They first conducted a thorough review of their school environment and curriculum, before developing a year-long plan of action.
