How candidates were graded

We scored MP hopefuls on their climate education ambition.

We wanted to make sure that the next Parliament’s MPs will take action to improve climate education in schools. We turned the tables on parliamentary candidates by grading them using our climate education report card.

Contacting parliamentary candidates

We provided a step-by-step guide will help you to contact your local parliamentary candidates, asking them to complete our climate education report card where they must answer 5 questions. Our volunteers then scored their answers and gave them an overall grade.

Together, we contacted as many parliamentary candidates as possible to make sure that the MPs who will represent us in this Parliament will take action to improve climate education in schools.

A template climate education report card, assessing a political candidates support for different aspects of climate education, including the integration of it through every subject, the improvement of teacher training around it, the inclusion of green skills in vocational courses, the retrofitting of school buildings to net-zero and the teaching on solutions as well as causes and impacts.
