Eco-Schools is a **global programme** engaging 19.5 million children across 67 countries, making it the largest educational programme on the planet. For over 25 years Eco-Schools has been empowering children to drive change and improve their environmental awareness through the simple **Seven-Step framework** in order to achieve the international Eco-Schools Green Flag award. Eco-Schools develops pupils’ skills, raises environmental awareness, improves the school environment and creates financial savings for schools as well as a whole host of other **benefits.** As part of this journey, we have established an Eco-Committee made up of pupil representatives. The Eco-Committee will look at the following areas: Biodiversity, Energy, Global Citizenship, Healthy Living, Litter, Marine, School Grounds, Transport, Waste and Water. The Eco-Committee meets regularly and undertakes school-wide Environmental Reviews. Buckingham Primary Academy was awarded a Merit for their successful Eco-Journey during the 2022-2023 academic year. ### Eco School Eco School Letter to Parents & Carers 205 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/buckingham-primary-academy-2/files/documents/Eco-Schools_Letter_to_Parents_Carers.pdf) ### Our School - [Welcome](https://buckinghamprimaryacademy.net/our-school/welcome) - [Values and Ethos](https://buckinghamprimaryacademy.net/our-school/values-and-ethos) - [Staff](https://buckinghamprimaryacademy.net/our-school/staff) - [Enquire Learning Trust](https://buckinghamprimaryacademy.net/our-school/enquire-learning-trust) - [Governance](https://buckinghamprimaryacademy.net/our-school/governance) - [Job Vacancies](https://buckinghamprimaryacademy.net/job-vacancies) - [Eco-Schools](https://buckinghamprimaryacademy.net/our-school/eco-schools) - [Nursery](https://buckinghamprimaryacademy.net/important-information/nursery) ![Buckingham Primary Academy](https://files.schudio.com/buckingham-primary-academy-2/images/logo/logo_(1).png) ### Buckingham Primary Academy Buckingham Street Hull HU8 8UG 01482 328661 © Copyright 2026 Buckingham Primary Academy School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://buckinghamprimaryacademy.net/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
