Delivering Sustainable Schools Exhibition & Conference 2008
This event on Monday 23 June 2008, at Aintree Racecourse, Liverpool will help teachers get the most out of Eco-Schools and highlight ways in which schools can become even more sustainable. The conference will also bring clarity to the Governmen's Sustainable
Schools Agenda, its links to Every Child Matters and many other
relevant strategies, programmes and awards.
This year the free event will feature:
- A Presentation Hall with presentations every 30 minutes on a range of topics including the Switched on Communities Eco-Schools Grant Scheme
- Ask the Experts surgery sessions for attending schools focussing on their challenges
- The brand new ASDAN Environmental Award, developed for secondary Eco-Schools
- An Exhibition Hall with over 30 relevant exhibitors
Many Local Authorities have chosen to support the event directly by laying on transport centrally for their own schools, contact your own authority to see if they are offering the same.

BP Carbon Challenge Roadshow
BP Carbon Challenge Roadshow. The BP Carbon Challenge is a high-impact Science, Maths and Enterprise roadshow for 14 to 16 year old students. Up to 180 students work together over two two-hour sessions to examine the carbon footprint of a school and learn about carbon reduction through a variety of activities using film, websites, interactive calculators, 3D-style mats and other visual material. The Carbon Challenge roadshow will be visiting schools in regions across the UK during 2008.
