Candidate's Responses
Do you support the integration of climate change throughout every subject?
Yes, where relevant and appropriate
Do you support the teaching on solutions for climate change, as well as the causes and impacts?
Yes. Our manifesto calls for "every child [to] learn about the climate and biodiversity crisis to equip them for the challenges ahead."
Do they support more training for all teachers around the climate crisis?
Our manifesto calls for "an increase in school funding, with an £8bn investment in schools" which will cover all facets of education, this included.
Do they support more money being spent to upgrade schools so they are carbon neutral?
Our manifesto calls for "Ensure that every school building is safe for children by investing £2.5bn a year to tackle the RAAC concrete scandal and provide the funding needed for schools to be well-maintained and fit for purpose." Making homes and buildings in all sectors climate-friendly is a core part of our mission.
Do they support more green skills being taught in job-related education?
Yes. Our manifesto calls for "Investment in skills and training (including retrofitting) reaching £4bn per year, allowing workers to be prepared for the transition [to a green economy] and the new roles they can take on."
