Your perspectives on sustainable schools

David Kester

Design Council Chief Executive

Building Schools for the Future is the biggest capital programme in education since the Victorian and post-war building waves and we need to get it right. That is why a much more vigorous creative process is required at the early stages of new building projects involving communities, technology partners and others in the education supply chain

Engine Service Design Director

I hope that through the OurNewSchool project the co-design team can help to take Walker Technology College forward. Success for me would be the school taking on some of the other design challenges that we've identified and also continuing to use the ournewschool.org website and tools that are developed to do some more co-designing when our project with Walker has come to an end.
