Candidate's Responses
Do you support the integration of climate change throughout every subject?
Climate crisis challenges every aspect of the way that we live, and where appropraite I fully support it being integrated into subject matter.
Do you support the teaching on solutions for climate change, as well as the causes and impacts?
I think it's often not fully understood that we have solutions to immediately address the climate crisis, instead it's political will which is the challenge. I represent the Green Party, who have that will. I agree that solutions (many of which are known) should be taught alongside causes and impacts.
Do they support more training for all teachers around the climate crisis?
It makes sense to me that teachers recevie training to support their teaching additional ideas and topics.
Do they support more money being spent to upgrade schools so they are carbon neutral?
Green and equitable investment is at the heart of the Green Party's policies, and better, greener schools and childcare are a key pillar among them.
Do they support more green skills being taught in job-related education?
Green and equitable investment is at the heart of the Green Party's policies, and better, greener jobs are a key pillar among them.
