Product reviews for Leadership for Sustainability

Dr Stuart Strathdee, Sustainability Lead, Greenhead College, Huddersfield, West Yorkshire – member of the UK Schools Sustainability Network (UKSSN)


Students are only too aware that they face life in a climate-altered world, yet many schools have barely begun to address the challenges this poses. Leadership for Sustainability is invaluable reading for every school leader wondering how best to start. Extremely thought-provoking, wide-ranging, and clear, it explores how school leaders can place sustainability at the heart of their institutions and the multiple benefits of doing so. Enriched throughout with links to sources of further information, the book also benefits enormously from concrete examples and the author’s candid discussion of his experiences implementing change. While referring mainly to primary settings, there’s much here that's useful for leaders in the secondary sector too. I recommend that anyone working to embed sustainability at their school reads David Dixon’s inspirational book.
