How do you make the environment and sustainability interesting to primary school children?
Can older students be persuaded to consider careers around Morecambe Bay instead of moving away?
The Morecambe Bay Curriculum is a partnership between Lancaster University, Lancaster & Morecambe College, University of Cumbria and the Eden Project.
Set up in 2019 the project aims to influence the National Curriculum at all levels by supporting teachers to embed sustainability and place into their everyday teaching.
From environmental art to the history of walking the Bay, how science mimics nature to the opportunities of eco-tourism, the Morecambe Bay Curriculum supports teachers to help young people understand the Bay area better.
The aim is to boost young people’s wellbeing while also preparing them for jobs in ‘green’ industries as well as instilling a sense of local pride.
