More than 1 million pupils attended an Eco School in England between 2022 &#8211; 2023.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Pupils at Wychwood formed WEco (Wychwood Eco club) last year to conduct an environmental review to assess how eco-friendly the school is. They reviewed everything from biodiversity within the school grounds to how pupils and staff members travel to school. Drawing upon their findings, pupils then planned a year of action designed to advance the school&#8217;s green credentials, improve the environment and protect our planet.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n    <\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"grid-x grid-padding-x\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"cell\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"button primary back_to_archive\" href=\"https:\/\/wychwoodschool.org\/news\/\" data-aos=\"fade-up\">Back to News<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"cell\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t  <div class=\"block-fc-image-carousel landscape text-center\">\n\t<div class=\"fc-image-carousel\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"slide\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"slide__content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"slide__image\" data-aos=\"fade-in\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img\n\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/wychwoodschool.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_E2214-1200x675-c-default.webp\"\n\t\t\t\tsrcset=\"\n\t\t\thttps:\/\/wychwoodschool.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_E2214-640x360-c-default.webp 640w,\n\t\t\thttps:\/\/wychwoodschool.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_E2214-768x432-c-default.webp 768w,\n\t\t\thttps:\/\/wychwoodschool.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/IMG_E2214-2048x1152-c-default.webp 2048w\n\t\t\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tsizes=\"\n\t\t\t(min-width: 2000px) 2048px,\n\t\t\t(min-width: 720px) calc(94.76vw - 274px),\n\t\t\t(min-width: 520px) calc(100vw - 96px),\n\t\t\tcalc(100vw - 32px)\n\t\t\"\n\t\talt=\"\"\n\t\tdata-image-id=\"3744\"\n\t\tloading=\"lazy\"\n\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"slick-controls\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"fc-image-carousel-prev-arrow\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t<div class=\"fc-image-carousel-next-arrow\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"block-fc-content\" data-aos=\"fade-in\" data-aos-delay=\"200\">\n\t<div class=\"fc-content grid-x grid-padding-x grid-padding-y\">\n\t\t<div class=\"cell\">\n      <p>The WEco team connected their work to 3 Eco Schools topics: biodiversity, healthy living, and the school grounds.
