How do young people feel about sustainability, as a wider subject, and in relation to their personal lives? To answer this question we’ve brought out a series of surveys asking children, young people and adults what they think. Over 3000 young people have taken the survey to date, in some cases the entire school has taken part. Schools find the surveys a useful baseline tool to measure the impact and outcomes of their sustainability work.
We ask that you take the time to complete the survey yourself, as well as sharing it with your students and networks. The surveys are anonymous, take approximately 15 minutes to complete, and are designed to help you and your students/colleagues explore your thinking, understanding, and feelings around sustainability. If the survey is used for a class, group or organisation, please contact admin@se-ed.org.uk if you would like a summary report after running the survey.
