The new requirement that schools in England develop their own climate action plans by 2025 lends urgency to the theme of this conference, 'Successful school leadership for Sustainable Development'.
This event will present the latest thinking, research and school practice to create spaces for high quality dialogue between researchers, teachers, school leaders and key stakeholders from government and non-government agencies in the UK and beyond. It aims to inspire participants and formulate key issues and agendas that are fundamental to improving the quality of education in schools.
