Social responsibility

At Eastern Education Group, we embrace sustainability as a core value. Our vision is to be a beacon of sustainability in education, inspiring a generation of eco-conscious leaders who possess the knowledge and skills to create a thriving and resilient world for both present and future generations.

The Eastern Education Group is employing the Sustainable Development Goals as a framework to integrate sustainability. We are currently concentrating on seven goals, with plans to expand our efforts to encompass all Sustainable Development Goals in the future, aiming to drive activity and progress collectively across the board.

Sustainable development goals

Future-proofing our tomorrow

A safe, secure and sustainable future begins with the steps we take today. That’s why we’re empowering our communities with the knowledge and skills to create a resilient world that future generations can thrive in. 

Curriculum

We embed sustainability into our curriculum, equipping students with the knowledge and skills to lead in a sustainable future. Our focused courses, practical projects, and community engagement foster a culture of responsibility and innovation.

Campus

From improving our energy efficiency with upgraded LED lighting, to producing our very own renewable electricity, we continue to transform our campuses to make them as green as possible.

Courses

At the Eastern Education Group, we believe that every job has the potential to be green and we are proud to be part of the green industrial revolution. Recognising the diverse range of skills necessary to drive us towards a net-zero economy, our aim is to become a leading “Green Skills” provider for the East of England.
