The evidence is clear that helping children to take social and environmental action improves their wellbeing, their engagement with learning, and their community. Schools need to equip and empower young people with the tools and mindset to address the environmental challenges facing the world. It is therefore compelling for our schools to involve children in activities that promote environmental awareness and action. I love the way this book is packed full of ideas to help schools to do just that and children can begin from the moment they start school. Each area for action begins with awareness raising so that young people know from the start the environmental challenges we all face. The message of the book is that schools should create a sustainable culture that permeates everything they do. Implementation of the “100 Ideas” will involve everyone taking action. Many teachers will be aware of some of the ideas presented but the book brings a whole range of ideas and opportunities into one easily accessible book with details of where they can get support and help. Implementing the ideas in the book will really change young people's and empower them, engage them and give them hope for their future.

Bloomsbury Publishing's new 100 ideas for Primary Teachers: Greener School is fantastic, and I wish I'd had something like it when I was in Primary School! It is full of the essential steps to becoming an eco-school. It is an awesome guide for greening schools, scouts and guides and school environmental clubs.

Edd is the best there is when it comes to making environmental awareness not just educational, but inspiring. His book is the perfect practical resource for teachers looking to bring sustainability into their school community. It won't just leave you with plenty of eco ideas - it'll help you feel like you can actually make a difference on this massive issue.

100 Ideas for Primary Teachers is an amazing resource that will hopefully find its way into every classroom in the country. At a time in history when the world is a scary place, and children everywhere are noticing higher levels of anxiety and uncertainty, we know we need to find tools to build their agency in helping create a better world. Through a focus not only on changing their own behaviours, but on how to set up campaigns and become young activists, this book will be incredibly helpful in fighting off the eco-anxiety we know is spreading throughout the education system.

If you're looking for a hands-on, real-world guide to help children fall in love with the planet while building critical life skills, this book is for you. 100 Ideas for Primary Teachers: Greener School is packed with practical, purposeful actions that any school can take-no matter the size or budget. It's about empowering children to lead, take action, and realise that their ideas can change the world. Every school should have a copy.

I absolutely love this amazing book! Having even one idea to make our schools greener is a win-but 100 ideas? That's a game changer! Just imagine how our country and planet could thrive if we put even 10% of Edd's brilliant suggestions into action in our schools, gardens, and communities. I've already started using few in my own garden, and it's been inspiring. How incredible would it be if every child read this book and took action for a greener, brighter future!
