Whether solar energy is an aspiration, an unused education resource, or you are already part of the Solar for Schools community, we centre our work around pupil voice and their thoughts on how they can become agents of change within school and beyond the school gates. Our education work is student-centred. It's not about simply teaching facts, but more about cultivating a mindset. While we know that the carbon savings of helping a school to ‘go solar’ are huge, it is the education that is at the heart of our mission; the key to unlocking the vital changes needed in society. In a very tangible and relevant way, we are making the energy transition a reality to school children and students, across all Key Stages.

Sustainability is relevant to every subject and stage of the curriculum. We can help you expand the subjects you know with solar and embed new solar-related topics making it accessible and interesting for your pupils. Sustainability includes your school building and is a great way to connect to your community.

Solar is a wonderful component of the energy mix the world needs to fulfil the growing demand for electricity. Have you ever wondered where the raw materials for solar come from, or where the components are made? Can they be recycled and why the hottest months don't always generate the most electricity?
