A middle year’s school program to facilitate student-led investigations into local climate mitigation and adaptation actions.
Climate Ready Schools invites students to carry out investigations into climate change adaptation and mitigation strategies in their school or local community.
New for 2025 – a self-guided online program to teach about the impacts of climate change at a global, national and local level. Students use this knowledge along with a problem-based learning approach through student-led co-design to address an aspect of climate change in their school or local community.
Participating schools receive:
- access to a self-guided online-learning program, with content covering climate change projections, Adelaide heat and flood mapping, biodiversity data, sea level rise and other issues
- ongoing, tailored support and resources to help integrate the content into the school curriculum and guide the development of solutions to climate change issues
- support in the use of the Design Thinking process to guide students through focussed problem-based learning
- links to relevant organisations and people with expertise
- support through online check-ins and the availability of Green Adelaide staff.
