Central Bedfordshire Council: Eco-School Green Flags

Date Added: 30/08/2022

15 schools have received their ‘Eco-School Green Flag Award’ this summer, marking a huge achievement for embedding sustainable projects across Central Bedfordshire schools.

This past academic year, we have supported schools by providing advice from a dedicated Sustainability Officer and launching an Eco-Schools forum to help schools share best practice. Applying for an Eco-Schools Green Flag is a way to celebrate and reward the ecological achievements of young people, demonstrating their hard work is appreciated and encouraging them to continue to engage with environmental issues.
In total, 37 schools have taken part in Eco-Schools, to work towards the Green Flag, and the following winning schools have all been presented with their awards:
Etonbury Academy Green Flag with Distinction
Brooklands Middle School Green Flag with Distinction
