Eco-Schools Scotland is delighted to announce the launch of their new Outcome Maps for the Curriculum for Excellence.

We have worked with experts from each of the five curricular Levels to provide an overview of how the Seven Elements of the Eco-Schools programme, and each of the Nine Topics, can link into the outcomes of the new Curriculum for Excellence.

Please note that our Outcome Maps are only designed to provide a starting point for teaching staff when it comes to linking Eco-Schools work with the new Curriculum for Excellence. We have supplied them in an editable 'Word' format, as well as PDF versions, and we strongly encourage adaptation, addition, and further development in accordance with the specific needs of each educational establishment. The maps are in no way prescriptive and are simply intended as 'starters for ten' to help teachers’ planning as they introduce the new curriculum.

We would also be very grateful if users could feed back their thoughts on these documents and any adaptations they have made.

The Autumn 2009 edition of the Eco-Schools Scotland newsletter also contains a focus on the Curriculum for Excellence and the way in which it links to the Eco-Schools programme.
