Absolutely - this can be done in an imaginative way that is age and stage appopriate. By doing this we will be preparing our young people for the challenges they are, unforunately, going to face in the future as a result of previous generations' failure to be able to hold climate consequences in mind long enough to spur action. In Scotland it is also a really good tiem to be doing this, as the Hayward Review is (or is supposed to be) prompting a redesign of the senior phase which is meant to include the opportunity for more linkage between subjects and to students' own interests.

Yes, this is very important, and it should cover both mitigation and adaptation. Many of the jobs of the future will be centred around both these tasks and it is also really important that the crisis itself isn't taught in a way which increases eco-anxiety. In fact, strategies for dealing with that anxiety should also be taught as standard in PSE/related subjects.

Yes, absoultely, it is not fair to expect teachers to teach somethign if they havne't had training. Probably ideally each department would have a champion or cirriuculm lead, and this would be a role that had time allocated to it, and that person could drive the content for teh subject and support their colleagues. Some of that professional development could also be done nationally and rolled out with online resources too.

Definitely. This can also be a learnign opportunity for the pupils - to learn, for example, how a solar panel or an ASHP works in technologoy classes and to hear from the people who are installing them about how they got into the work and what qualifications they needed (see below). Public sector contracts can be awarded with conditions like this on the suppliers, so the installers could be asked to contribute to assemblies or careers education.

This is absolutely vital! We need to think about the sort of jobs that will be needed in the future and make these familiar to young people from an early age so that they know the range of opportuntiies that will be out there for them, and can pursue the skills and subjects they need accordingly.
