Really interesting read from @teachthefuture.bsky.social on KS1-KS5 students' views on Curriculum & Assessment in England. Embedding climate ed across subjects, better support for teachers, & more time in nature are recommendations we can all get behind! www.teachthefuture.uk/blog/youth-l...
Youth-led review shows students want better climate education
