The Climate Literacy Survey 2025 is now open and we are looking for schools to participate in this year’s survey. It should take 5-10 minutes and should be completed online and in school.

The 2023/ 2024 DfE Climate Literacy Survey of school leavers shows that, although most school leavers are ‘fairly concerned’ about climate change more are ‘not very’ or ‘not at all’ concerned about climate change than are ‘very concerned’.

Bring COP to the classroom with a range of resources focused on climate change in Azerbaijan.

These ideas can be adapted to support teaching to engage geography students with the negotiations and where they are taking place!

Since 1970, more than 90% of excess heat in the climate system has been absorbed by oceans. The CO2 that oceans are absorbing is also having a notable impact on their chemistry.

Maths is at the centre of all things science, and climate change is no different.

The Climate Calculations Challenge requires students to explore the broad topic of climate change and the many possible links it has to mathematics.

🌏 What is climate literacy? Who needs it? What does high-quality climate education look like? When should people develop it, and how?

Professor Sylvia Knight explores these questions...
