Eco-Schools is a worldwide extra-curricular education programme aimed at children of school age that teaches them about the environment, raises awareness of climate change, and encourages outdoor activity. In the UK, the programme is led by Keep Britain Tidy.
Dan has worked with Eco-Schools on numerous social media campaigns and educational videos promoting the work of the organisation and encouraging schools to become ‘Eco-Schools’.
What is Eco-Schools?
Dan worked with Eco-Schools to produce a series of 8 videos to promote each of the 7 steps of the educational programme to primary, SEND, and secondary schools across England, as well as creating a bank of content to utilise for various campaigns in the future across all platforms.
Dan and his production team worked with Eco-Schools, to take the project from concept to delivery, working with several schools to exemplify the curriculum enhancements this scheme offers to students at participating schools.
