Candidate's Responses
Do you support the integration of climate change throughout every subject?
Yes, in learning about climate change and the climate crisis, students will understand social and political issues and how best to tackle them.

It is essential that solutions are on the agenda and the curriculum.

This is of course necessary in order to teach the future generations.

We absolutely need better capital investment in decarbonising our schools and making school estates and days as net-zero as possible.

I believe Green Skills should be taught and encouraged across the board.
