Doorways to Sustainable Schools

A Teacher's Perspective On COVID-19 From Inside a School

Listen Later

In this episode Martin speaks as the voice of one teacher, talking in a time of crisis, from the perspective of one school. Martin talks from a purely personal perspective on the current COVID-19 situation, the new lockdown and the role school's have played in the run up to the decision, 

Martin examines how his school is coping with the new lockdown, how things have changed since the first lockdown in March 2020, and he explores these topics through a mantra he uses throughout his geography field work lesson - safety first, fun second, learning third.

Finally, Martin shares some exciting news about a series of meetings leading up to the Schools Climate Summit, and a renewed focus for sustainable schools.
