How To Become A Climate Action School - 8 May 2025

How To Become A CAS School

Practical Strategies & Industry Knowledge for Schools to Lead in Sustainability

About the Workshop

This 2-hour online workshop equips educators, school administrators, and facilities teams with practical strategies and industry knowledge to activate sustainability aspirations using LEAN principles, resource recovery, and circular economy strategies while aligning with Environmental Social Governance (ESG) goals and industry best practice.

Using real-world case studies, such as Woodridge & Shailer Park State High School sustainability transformation, and guided by the Climate Action Schools (CAS) framework, participants will gain an actionable roadmap to becoming a Climate Action School while establishing world-of-work pathways for students.

How This Workshop Differs from the Sustainability Workshop

The Sustainability Workshop is the first step, providing a broad introduction to key sustainability concepts, ESG principles, circular economy strategies, and resource recovery. It is designed to build industry currency and awareness for educators by exploring global sustainability trends and their implications for schools.

How To Become A CAS School is the next step, taking a deeper dive into practical implementation by providing schools with a step-by-step approach to becoming a Climate Action School (CAS). This workshop focuses on actionable strategies, real-world case studies, and industry-aligned tools that schools can use immediately to embed sustainability into operations and align curriculum.

If the Sustainability Workshop inspires awareness, this workshop provides the blueprint for execution.
