Buildings and Grounds

Building and Grounds logo

By 2020 the government would like all school buildings old and new to make visible use of sustainable design features and, as opportunities arise, to choose building technologies, interior furnishings and equipment with a low impact on the environment. We would like all schools to develop their grounds in ways that help pupils learn about the natural world and sustainable living, for example, through food growing and biodiversity conservation.

The Buildings & Grounds doorway supports your work with the ‘Enjoy & Achieve’ and ‘Be Healthy’ ECM outcomes and environmental sustainability.
