Sheffield Hallam University has partnered with Global Action Plan to deliver the ‘Good Life Schools’, a free programme for secondary schools and colleges, that brings communities together to create ways of living and learning together that are good for us, and good for the planet.
The programme has been running in 3 Sheffield secondaries this academic year (Meadowhead School, King Egberts School and High Storrs School), and have an additional 7 secondary school places for the 2025-26 academic year, available on a first come first served basis.
Join our supported Good Life Schools programme and receive:
- CPD, launch assembly and workshop delivery from the local officer
- Step-by-step guidance and a pack of teaching resources and activities to support your school run the programme up to an entire academic year.
- Ongoing support from your Community Engagement Lead.
- Funding of up to £2,000 to help you deliver the project
How it works
Your school will be supported by an experienced Community Engagement Lead, who will work alongside a Lead Teacher in your school to deliver the programme as an extra-curricular opportunity during a term and time of your choice.
- Form a Good Life Group, explore the Good Life vs. the Goods Life
- Create a Good Life project, gather support for your projects
- Put your Good Life projects into action, celebrate and share your story
