Climate Ready School Grounds
The Climate Ready School Grounds project explores using school grounds to address the impacts of climate change whilst creating outdoor environments that support learning and play.
The Climate Ready School Grounds project was a year long project and partnership between Architecture & Design Scotland and Learning through Landscapes. It explores using school grounds to address the impacts of climate change whilst creating outdoor environments that support learning and play. The project offers a suite of resources to help schools, local authorities, and design professionals create climate ready school grounds.
