Dear London Teacher,
I am delighted to let you know that the second full London Climate Action Week (LCAW) will take place between 14th and 20th November 2020. A Covid friendly, 3 day, Digital LCAW took place between 1-3 July 2020.
Every London school is invited to take part so that their students are given the opportunity to understand more about climate change, London’s risks and vulnerabilities. We hope that in doing so you and your students will respond by taking actions that you feel appropriate to your context.
To help you, we have a number of practical resources for you.
1. A brand new fortnightly podcast called Doorways to Sustainable Schools.
Its aim is to introduce you to a range of inspiring guests who each have practical tips and a free lesson plan to accompany their episode. It was launched during Digital LCAW and will run until the main event in November.
Click here for the Doorways Podcast.
2. Fifty - yes 50! - FREE lesson plans
The lessons are in three batches as follows:
a. 13 lessons inspired by our podcast interviewees.
These will be released fortnightly with the final one during LCAW 2020. Click here to find the podcast and the lesson plans.
b. 4 Lessons 4 London
Last year World’s Largest Lesson collaborated with London Sustainable Schools Forum and GLOBE International to create a unique set of four free lessons for Key Stage 2 & 3. These lessons cover 4 areas:
c. 33 Lessons on London Climate Action (part of our 33 project)
These lessons combine amazing lessons by London Curriculum and World's Largest Lesson by providing London focused response to the Global Goals. All 33 lessons can be found on our main LCAW page or directly here.
3. Youth Climate Summit 9th to 13th November 2020
This is a National event run by the amazing people at Transform Our World in the week before LCAW. If you don't already know about them - find out (we are very proud to be one of their many partners)! We'll be joining in and we'll take a London perspective on the summit's outcomes in the following week in LCAW. Click here to find out more about the Youth Climate Summit.
Imagine if every London school took part...
Yours sincerely

Chair, London Sustainable Schools Forum in partnership with London Climate Action Week
