The Eco-Schools programme, established in 1994, is now implemented in over 70 countries worldwide. In 2023-24, more than 1.4 million pupils attended an Eco-School in England. Pupils at Moor Park Primary School used Eco-Schools’ tried-and-trusted seven-step framework to create positive change. Initially, a pupil-led Eco Council was established. This committee took responsibility for spearheading their school’s environmental initiatives, with support from Mrs Harrison. They first conducted a thorough review of their school environment and curriculum, before developing a plan of action. Their Action Plan focused on 3 key issues: Bio-diversity, Marine and Global Citizenship and activities included litter picks, a beach clean, and planting flowers and vegetables. These activities were thoughtfully selected to increase environmental awareness, bolster their school’s sustainability, and make meaningful contributions to global conservation efforts. Speaking about their achievements, staff member Mrs Harrison said, “from day one, the children demonstrated so much enthusiasm and passion for the Eco Schools project; they were determined to make a change and they have certainly achieved that.” Eco-Schools England Manager, Adam Flint, said: ‘The Eco-Schools’ Green Flag is an international benchmark that demonstrates a commitment to fighting climate change and high standard of sustainable practice. Students and staff who earn this award deserve recognition for their dedication toward protecting our planet. Every day, they demonstrate that each of us can contribute to making our planet a better, more sustainable, place.’ To learn more about Eco-Schools head to [www.eco-schools.org.uk](https://www.eco-schools.org.uk/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAAR33_OXOy9epdBG1wOH_ubXKZ91BorDcX80qn2xa-PuFg6x0OCnBIRalS0c_aem_sfQerOUYZE13WWWBGNgL0Q) [ Synergy Education Trust Launch](https://seteducation.org.uk/news/2024-04-01-synergy-education-trust-launch) [Highfurlong School New Building Opens ](https://seteducation.org.uk/news/2024-09-09-highfurlong-school-new-building-opens) ### About Us - [Welcome](https://seteducation.org.uk/welcome) - [Vision and Values](https://seteducation.org.uk/vision-and-values) - [Governance](https://seteducation.org.uk/governance) - [Our People](https://seteducation.org.uk/our-people) - [News](https://seteducation.org.uk/news) - [Newsletters](https://seteducation.org.uk/newsletters) ![Synergy Education Trust](https://files.schudio.com/synergy-trust-preview-2/images/logo/logo-white.png) ### Contact Us **Synergy Education Trust** c/o Stanley Primary School Wordsworth Ave, Blackpool FY3 9UT Tel: 01253 800318 ### Links - [Executive Team](https://seteducation.org.uk/executive-team) - [Policies and Documents](https://seteducation.org.uk/statutory-documents) ### Our School Family - [Boundary Primary School](https://www.boundaryschool.co.uk/) - [Educational Diversity](https://eddiversity.com/) - [Highfurlong School](https://highfurlong.org/) - [Moor Park Primary School](https://moorparkprimaryandnursery.co.uk/) - [Norbreck Primary Academy](https://www.norbreck.blackpool.sch.uk/) - [Stanley Primary School](https://www.stanleyprimaryschool.com/) - [The Maple School](https://www.themapleschool.co.uk/) Synergy Education Trust Limited is a Company Limited by Guarantee, registered number 14555530.
