The Climate Action Teachers Champions (CATCh)

The CATCh Programme is Luton’s nationally recognised, award winning teacher training initiative.

Climate Action Teacher’s Champion (CATCh) programme is Luton’s flagship initiative aimed at helping teacher’s and local schools access resource and support in delivering and embracing sustainability. CATCh has been specifically designed to help teacher’s embed climate change and sustainability within their learning programmes, and to help school leads and senior leadership to understand how they can access local resources, funding and support to help launch their school Climate Change Action Plan.

We already have a third of our local schools signed up to the ever-growing network of cohorts. The CATCh programme has also been recognised nationally for its efforts in working with local schools. The local Government Association highlighted the work done through the CATCh programme as part of their Case Study library, an opportunity for other member LA’s to learn about great work being done across the country.

The project was awarded the Empower Award at the Luton Excellence Awards 2024.
