Education

Welcome to Practical Action education pages with lots of tried and tested classroom ideas for teachers. Our aim is to provide practical support to help teachers address sustainability by producing good quality resources, providing continuing professional development sessions, stimulating ideas through the e-newsletter and sharing information.

We hope you will enjoy using this site to bring sustainability into your teaching.

Our fantastic D&T section brings our best resources in one easily accessible page which will continue to develop with the addition of new and interesting material.

Cross curricular resources include lots of new downloadable material for use in primary, geography and citizenship lessons.

We offer tailored continuing professional development courses run by experienced tutors covering sustainability and the global dimension.

We have a special section devoted to Climate Change which highlights the impact of change on people around the world and asks what we can do about it.

New CD resource
Come and visit us at Stand B46 at the Design and Technology Show, NEC, Birmingham (19-21st November). We’re launching a new CD resource Getting Started with Sustainability to support the new GCSE specifications for D&T.
