Cómo aparece la sostenibilidad
No existe una asignatura independiente de sostenibilidad: los contenidos sobre clima y medio ambiente se encuentran en los programas de estudio obligatorios de ciencias, geografía y educación cívica (p. ej., ciencias KS3: 'la producción de dióxido de carbono por la actividad humana y su impacto en el clima'; KS4: 'pruebas ... de otras causas antropogénicas del cambio climático'). La estrategia del DfE 'Sostenibilidad y cambio climático: una estrategia para los sistemas de educación y servicios para la infancia' (2022, actualizada en 2023) afirma que los niños adquieren estos conocimientos 'a través de los programas de ciencias, geografía y educación cívica', y la respuesta del Gobierno a la Revisión del Currículo y la Evaluación (noviembre de 2025) se compromete a reforzar la educación climática en un currículo revisado que se impartirá por primera vez a partir de 2028.
