Hoe duurzaamheid erin terugkomt
Er is geen apart vak duurzaamheid: klimaat- en milieuinhouden zitten in de wettelijk vastgelegde programma's voor natuurwetenschappen, aardrijkskunde en burgerschap (bijv. KS3 natuurwetenschappen: 'de uitstoot van koolstofdioxide door menselijke activiteit en de gevolgen voor het klimaat'; KS4: 'bewijs ... voor aanvullende antropogene oorzaken van klimaatverandering'). De strategie van het DfE, 'Duurzaamheid en klimaatverandering: een strategie voor de onderwijs- en kinderdienstensystemen' (2022, bijgewerkt in 2023), stelt dat kinderen deze kennis opbouwen 'via de programma's voor natuurwetenschappen, aardrijkskunde en burgerschap', en in de reactie van de regering op de Evaluatie van het curriculum en de beoordeling (november 2025) wordt toegezegd het klimaatonderwijs te versterken in een herzien curriculum dat vanaf 2028 voor het eerst wordt onderwezen.
