The Schools Design Forum (SDF) is a new initiative by the BRE Trust and the Sustainable Development Commission to progress the aims of the government’s Building Schools for the Future programme. The Forum brings together leading practitioners who are committed to bringing about a change in the way sustainability is understood, delivered and shared in schools.
This report highlights the output from a SDF workshop held in September 2006, carefully structured to tackle the questions:
- Where are we now?
- Where would we like to be?
- How do we get there?
Key findings from discussions involving 60 experts provide thought-provoking insights into how the built environment can play its part in making the learning environment more sustainable. The full verbatim responses are available in a companion publication BR491.
