How can students hold politicians accountable for climate action?
Through PACTS (Politicians Accountable for Climate to Students), a groundbreaking schools initiative empowering students to influence their MPs and engage meaningfully in the political process.
Here’s what makes PACTS unique:
- It’s more than just writing letters—it’s an ongoing dialogue, with students following up and questioning commitments over time.
- It transforms how students understand and participate in the political cycle, fostering confidence and real-world impact.
Teachers have a bold vision for the future of education—one where values, well-being, and sustainability are at the core of every classroom. It’s a future that puts students first and builds a better world through education.
In each episode, we sit down with inspiring teachers who are bringing PACTS to life in their classrooms. They share:

- How they’re making it happen, from classroom discussions to meeting MPs.
