Hackney’s Sustainable Schools’ Community (HSSC)
Please note this was called the Hackney Sustainability Network in the first version of the Training brochure.
Introduction
This community supports schools at every stage of their sustainability journey, helping them fulfil responsibilities such as appointing a sustainability lead and implementing an action plan. By working with schools across the borough, it aims to integrate sustainability into school cultures. Members can share their experiences, learn about national opportunities and resources, and stay updated on DfE policy changes and the new Hackney Sustainability Curriculum initiative. The group will exchange ideas and draw inspiration from case studies of schools in Hackney and across the country, with resources available from the National Education Nature Park, the Harmony Project, and the Count Your Carbon free tool, among others.
