99% of local authority schools in Scotland are registered on the eco-schools programme. In addition, a considerable number of early learning and childcare centres have Green Flags as well as Bronze and Silver awards.
Scotland’s eco-schools record compares well with the rest of Europe. Information from the most recent (2013) ‘number of schools’ comparison from Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE) who operate the Eco Schools Programme shows that Scotland had the third largest number of local authority and independent education establishments in Europe with a Green Flag (1690), behind Ireland (2974) and Sweden (1757).
