Climate Literacy Event
Climate Literacy Event
Conference

Panel Event: Climate Literacy in 2022 School Leavers

DATE

Wednesday 21 September 2022
14:30 - 15:30

Add Event to Calendar: Google

LOCATION

Virtual - Hosted on Zoom

Experts from the worlds of education policy and climate science explored the findings of a climate literacy survey conducted earlier this year on the Royal Meteorological Society’s behalf by Ipsos MORI as part of their Young Person’s Omnibus survey.

The questions asked in the survey were developed by the Royal Meteorological Society, in conjunction with many of their members, including authors of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report, to ensure that they give a fair assessment of climate literacy. The questions will remain relevant in years to come as we hope to repeat the survey annually to assess the impact of interventions on climate change education in schools.

The ongoing results of the survey will inform the work of the Royal Meteorological Society, supporting teachers of all subjects to make use of the opportunities within the current curricula and exam specifications to teach climate change

Programme

This free 50-minute virtual event included an overview of the findings of the survey, panel discussion and Q&A.

The panel included:

Chair: Prof Liz Bentley, Chief Executive, Royal Meteorological Society

  • Prof Andrew Charlton-Perez, Head of School of Mathematical, Physical and Computational Sciences, University of Reading and Professor of Meteorology
  • Dr Sylvia Knight, Head of Education, Royal Meteorological Society
  • Dr Pippa Bailey, Head of Climate Change and Sustainability Practice, Ipsos UK
  • Carl Ward, Chief Executive, City Learning Trust and Chair of the Foundation for Education Development 
  • Eleanor May, Teach the Future
