At STAGS, sustainability forms a cornerstone of our values of improving the environment and taking care of the future, encompassed in our school motto, 'Nobis Cura Futura’, Ours is the Care of the Future'

Students in every year group are actively involved in raising awareness and helping to reduce our school carbon footprint, minimise the amount of waste going to landfill, and encouraging sustainable use of resources across the school. Through regular Eco Council meetings, StagsBites, StagsTalks, projects and activities, we are raising awareness of the importance and impacts of our actions on our school, local and global environments.
