Built around a simple three tiered approach - what pupils learn; what the do and who they ultimately become - the GC Pathwy ensures that sustainability is not an add-on but a thread running through your school's curriculum, culture and community.
The Pathway is underpinned by 5 guiding principles:
- Embed don't add-on
- Empathy into action
- Think Globally, Act locally
- Pupil Voice is powerful
- Hope-filled, joyful learning
Sustainability and global citizenship woven throughout all curriculum areas — not confined to geography and science.
This integrated approach:
•Reinforces awareness across all subjects
•Embeds sustainability language naturally
•Makes responsible practice second nature
•Becomes the foundation of how pupils see the world
Collaborative meaningful action enables all pupils and staff to make a positive difference through "think globally, act locally."
•Eases eco-anxiety: Transforms worry into empowered agency
•Embeds learning: Makes knowledge tangible and relevant
•Creates genuine change: In local and global communities
•Develops character: Builds confidence and leadership
Everyone — from youngest pupils to experienced staff — contributes meaningfully to positive change, building confidence and agency.
The Global Citizenship Pathway promotes understanding and empathy while creating opportunities for genuine pupil agency.
Meaningful action develops:
•Collaboration
•Resilience
•Courage
•Leadership
•Problem-solving
•Creativity
•Enthusiasm
•Self-belief
Pupils develop into confident, capable global citizens who understand their role in creating positive change and have the skills to make it happen.
