Climate Action Plan - Sustainable School
Caring for Our Common Home
At Penwortham Primary School, we believe that caring for the environment is a vital part of our mission and learning. We are committed to living our the Climate Action Plan across all areas of school.
Inspired by the call to protect our common home, we embed sustainability and climate awareness throughout our curriculum. Through our Kapow curriculum, pupils explore global environmental issues and take part in practical initiatives that promote stewardship of the Earth. From reducing waste to supporting biodiversity, we encourage every child to make a positive impact because together, small actions lead to big change.
To make learning real and effective, each topic is underpinned by Big Thinking Questions that challenge pupils to reflect and act in line with our school values:

These questions help children connect learning to real-world issues, encouraging them to think deeply, act responsibly, and live out our values in practical ways.
