Following the latest review from the Oxford, Cambridge and RSA Examination Board, Dom Higgins, The Wildlife Trusts' head of health and education reflects on its recommendations around making climate and sustainability more prominent in our teaching requirements.

“Climate change and sustainability topics must be made more explicit throughout the curriculum and within individual subjects and qualifications”.

This stand-out call to action features in Oxford, Cambridge and RSA Examination Board’s latest review, Striking the Balance. Chaired by former Secretary of State for Education Charles Clark, the review highlights the critical need to update the school curriculum for 11-16 year-olds, making several recommendations relating to the role and use of assessment and examinations across secondary education.
