And that’s it! Here you will find all our free resources to get you started on your Eco-Schools journey.

Did you know? If you click on ‘Impact’ in the left-hand menu, you’ll find stats about the difference Eco-Schools, like yours, are collectively making this school year. 

Get the Eco-Schools Green Flag

  • Schools whose pupils successfully complete the Eco-Schools programme are eligible for Green Flag accreditation.  
  • The Eco-Schools Green Flag is a fantastic way to recognise the hard work of your pupils and earn kudos for your school. 
  • Green Flag accreditation costs £200 +VAT, but Eco-Schools is not-for-profit and receives no government funding.  
  •  So, this small fee enables us to continue delivering the Eco-Schools each year and we thank schools for their support. 

We know schools are struggling

If you would like to apply for the Eco-Schools Green Flag, but are concerned about the fee, it is worth noting that some schools have been funded by their Parent Teacher Association (PTA), local authority (council), or a local corporate sponsor.
