"Education is a crucial force supporting the green transition and building a sustainable future for Europe’s societies and economies. The EU’s unwavering commitment is to ensure that every young European has access to high-quality education and training on sustainability. To achieve this goal, we need to develop comprehensive strategies to prioritise learning for sustainability among schools, educators and students. This involves integrating it as a central theme in education policies. This new report examines the building blocks of learning for sustainability in European schools. It analyses the inclusion of crucial competences in school curricula and the variety of guidance and support provided to teachers and schools to bolster sustainability education. According to the key findings of the report, we have made huge strides in embedding learning for sustainability within the educational framework. Sustainability themes are now woven into the curricula in all European countries, with related competences integrated across several or all subject areas. As part of ongoing curricular reforms, there is a concerted effort to deepen the focus on sustainability education. However, the report also unveils a gap in targeted support, guidance and training opportunities available to teachers and school leaders. And while a majority of European education systems promotes the inclusion of sustainability in all aspects of the learning environment, these policies are not always coupled with financial and non-financial support for specific school activities. Overall, the findings indicate a need for more robust actions to equip our teachers and schools with the tools they need to enable all students to understand and address sustainability challenges. I am confident that the rich evidence in this comprehensive report will serve as an invaluable resource for educators, policymakers and other stakeholders to foster the development and enhancement of learning for sustainability. I hope that the findings will encourage countries to exchange best practices and to learn from each other, underscoring the urgency of placing sustainability at the heart of school education. By doing so, we can empower every young person to care for the planet and to protect our common future." Iliana Ivanova European Commissioner for Innovation, Research, Culture, Education and Youth
