October 2026 update
Here are the latest updates from the National Education Nature Park team.
Free climate action planning events
How can your nursery, school or college save money, prepare for future heatwaves and become a healthier, more comfortable place to work and learn? This is your invite to a free, in-person workshop in London or Manchester to kick off your engagement with the DfE’s sustainability support programmes – no matter where you are on your sustainability journey.
Webinar: Accessibility and inclusivity with the Nature Park
We’re working with educators, learners, and subject matter experts to develop core Nature Park resources to help learners – including those with additional needs – to develop core skills and knowledge and build comfort, enjoyment, and confidence outdoors. Join our webinar to hear about this process, plus we’ll be joined by Robin Thomas, Head of School at Prospect House Primary Specialist Support School, to hear all about how they’ve been progressing sustainability in their setting.
Thursday 19 November, 16.00-16.30
Secondary: introducing advocacy and speaking up for nature
Against a backdrop of conferences like COP, how can everyday citizens make their voices heard? Explore these questions and more in the KS3 and KS4 activity where learners consider who they could influence, how they might communicate their message, and how collaborating with scientists and sharing evidence drives positive change.
