We are calling on the government to integrate comprehensive food, farming, and sustainability education into the national curriculum, making these subjects core to students’ learning from early years through secondary school.
This gap deprives students of an understanding of how their actions impact the environment, health, and society. Practical education connecting students to these issues could improve academic engagement and provide life skills essential for resilience.
We believe that embedding sustainability within the curriculum will align our educational standards with global goals, fostering environmental responsibility and stewardship.
