A youth led movement creating huge environmental benefits.
For over 30 years, Eco-Schools England has empowered young people to protect our planet—starting in schools and reaching into communities and beyond. In 2024–25, more nurseries, schools, and colleges applied for a Green Flag than ever before, including a 65% surge in nursery applications following the launch of our Eco-Schools: Early Years pathway in September 2024. This report shares powerful quotes and statistics from Green Flag applications, spotlighting a generation that cares deeply about the planet, believes in their power to create change, and is already taking action.
