The third biennial 2023 Sustainable Schools Celebration was held at City Hall, with a welcome and keynote speech from Clare Maltby, England Director for the Midlands and East at Sustrans.

Cllr Adam Clarke added: "It is hugely encouraging to see so many of our schools continuing to work so hard to raise awareness of environmental issues and sustainability with their pupils, parents and communities and demonstrate their commitment to health and wellbeing.

“With the climate emergency focusing attention on the need to respond globally, it’s inspiring that so many of our schools continue to come up with such innovative ideas and projects to live more responsibly. I am also very proud that all city schools are supported by a dedicated team of council officers who oversee the most successful Eco-Schools programme in the country.”
