Based on WWF-UK’s experience of working with schools since 1988, a system of support for schools was designed to provide schools with the skills opportunities to advance Learning for Sustainability.
WWF would like to offer this approach and programme, that supports whole school engagement around Learning for Sustainability, to other school supporters, i.e. people who work with and support schools. The following support system element might like to be considered:
1. An organising framework: Pathways: A development framework for school sustainability
2. Building a team
3. Professional development opportunities
4. Technical support; and
5. A learning community.

- Activities and ideas for monitoring, evaluating and building a learning community.
