E-Mail More than half of teachers in England are in favour of teaching children to take direct action against climate change and break the rules to make their point, according to a new survey. The research, led by the University of Bristol, is the largest of its kind in the UK and involved asking 626 primary and secondary teachers across England their views on climate change education. Results revealed teachers believed almost unanimously in an action-focussed climate change curriculum incorporated across subjects, starting with conservation projects in early primary school. The majority (54 per cent) also believed this should extend to participation in civil disobedience at secondary school.
