More than a one-off workshop. We help you embed sustainability across your curriculum, for generations to come.
See our education programme in action.
Whether solar energy is an aspiration, an unused education resource or you are already part of the Solar for Schools community, we centre our work around pupil voice and their thoughts on how they can become agents for change, both inside and outside school. Our education work is student-centred. It's not about simply teaching facts, but more about cultivating a mindset. While we know that the carbon savings of helping a school to ‘go solar’ are huge, it is the education that is at the heart of our mission; the key to unlocking the vital changes needed in society. In a very tangible and relevant way, we are making the energy transition a reality to school children and students, across all Key Stages.
Sustainability is relevant to every subject and stage of the curriculum. We will help you for as long as you are engaged to expand the subjects you know with solar and embed new solar-related topics making it accessible and interesting for your pupils. Sustainability includes your school building and is a great way to connect to your community.
Solar is a wonderful component of the energy mix the world needs to fulfil the growing demand for electricity. Have you ever wondered where the raw materials for solar come from, or where the components are made? Can they be recycled and why the hottest months don't always generate the most electricity?
Eco groups are a great way to get everyone involved in creating a more sustainable future. What are you waiting for?
Solar enables schools to become their own clean, green power stations. But that's only the start! Solar with education can help foster behaviour change around energy use.
Transport is responsible for around 30% of the UK’s total greenhouse gas emissions. But there are many ways to improve school travel, such as installing EV charging.
Understanding and maintaining biodiversity is essential for healthy ecosystems. Did you know that solar farms can promote biodivsersity?
Use your voice and the power of persuasion to convince school leaders of the benefits of getting solar panels. We will help you on your journey.
