School buildings across the country are falling apart, they are damp, cold and unsafe - and yet consistently being denied funding by the Department for Education.
We’re campaigning for a large increase in funding to ensure that our schools are safe, comfortable and climate friendly - so we can learn in an environment fit for the future.
The RAAC concrete scandal - in which 234 schools in England were found to be built with an unsafe and potentially collapsing material - demonstrated something that students and teachers have known for a long time: our schools are in urgent need of a fix-up.
Meanwhile, 2,945 schools have signed on to go zero-carbon by 2030. They want to be teaching in decent, environmentally-friendly buildings so that their students can be engaging with a sustainable environment everyday.
Without more funding, this will be impossible.
We’re calling on the government to fund the retrofitting and rebuilding of schools - cutting energy costs for schools and providing better learning environments for students, and helping the UK reach its net-zero goals.
We want to show the government that underfunding has really hurt our school buildings - but we need evidence to do this.
We need students, parents & teachers to send in photos of the problems with their school buildings - the damp, disrepair, inefficiency and mould that are damaging our learning environments.
**Sending in photos gives you the chance to enter our £50 National Book Token Prize Draw**

It's sad that students are learning in environments like this - but there is a solution. The next government must invest to make our schools safer and bring them to net-zero, cutting costs and carbon emissions.
