1.  Education for Sustainable Development (ESD):

• To create and foster an ecological, social and economic awareness and stewardship through our curriculum and pedagogy.

1.5	Awareness has been generated around issues of sustainability, with a particular focus on water. Numerous
1.6	A meeting has been had with HoDs on implementation of SDGs into curricula, but this is ongoing.
1.7	Societies have actively been promoting sustainability. GIN boys have been involved in ISASA Youth Environment and Leadership Programme in conjunction with Cambridge University Institute for Sustainability Leadership. They will be attending a conference at Bishops on 22 and 23 July 2013. The Global Issues Network group boys are involved in a range of sustainability projects both within the Bishops community and outside. GIN boys took part in the interschool’s sustainability project collaborating with learners from Christel House. Boys from all houses did a visual electricity audit and will be meeting with Terra Firma to learn how to best use the software to initiate electricity reductions within the house. A group has drawn up a water leaks reporting sheet that can be filled in as an online survey with info sent through to maintenance and then checked to see if leaks have been fixed. Sustainable Agriculture Society is a new initiative as an offshoot of GIN and there are several Grade 11 boys working on issues around food security at Bishops, creating a permaculture designed vegetable garden which feeds primarily the support staff. They are working on a "Legacy Food Forest".
1.8	Still to be done.
