Como surge a sustentabilidade
Não existe uma disciplina autónoma de sustentabilidade: os conteúdos sobre clima e ambiente integram os programas de estudo obrigatórios de ciências, geografia e cidadania (por exemplo, ciências no KS3: 'a produção de dióxido de carbono pela atividade humana e o seu impacto no clima'; KS4: 'provas ... de causas antropogénicas adicionais das alterações climáticas'). A estratégia do DfE 'Sustentabilidade e alterações climáticas: uma estratégia para os sistemas de educação e de serviços para a infância' (2022, atualizada em 2023) afirma que as crianças constroem este conhecimento 'através dos programas de ciências, geografia e cidadania', e a resposta do Governo à Revisão do Currículo e da Avaliação (novembro de 2025) compromete-se a reforçar a educação climática num currículo revisto, para um primeiro ensino a partir de 2028.
