Measuring Change
Improving Environmental Outcomes

Throughout New Zealand hundreds of schools are engaging in learning for sustainability – a holistic process that has a range of environmental, educational, economic and social benefits for students and their community. 

Every year we see and hear of enviroschools diverting tonnes of waste from landfill, planting thousands of native trees and taking action to use energy and water efficiently. So how much change are enviroschools actually making? What difference does this make towards creating sustainable school communities and collectively, a more sustainable New Zealand? The Measuring Change tool measures the physical environmental outcomes happening in schools.

The Measuring Change tool was developed by The Enviroschools Foundation with support from the Ministry of Education.
