About the Event

Join fellow geography educators for a hands-on workshop exploring a brand-new set of curriculum-aligned resources designed to bring urban nature, local geography, and climate action into the classroom.

Developed by Kate Stockings – Trust Lead for Geography at Future Academies and London National Park City Ranger – who has developed a set of resources that share the real-world case studies of projects happening throughout London National Park City aiming to make London greener, healthier and wilder. These resources, with the support of the London National Park City small grants programme, have been carefully mapped to the curriculum to ensure they’re ready to go in both KS3 and KS4 classrooms.

This session will give you tools and inspiration to:

• Delve into real-world case studies showing how grassroots action can make London greener, healthier, and wilder
  
  

• Teach students to consider how small-scale local action can help mitigate and adapt to climate change
  
  

• Spark imagination, agency, and curiosity in your classroom through learning about projects across London
  
  

You’ll get early access to the resources, and the chance to co-create how these materials could be used in schools across the UK.
