Local community visits brooklands technical college weybridge campus at open event

Brooklands Technical College recognises its commitment to raising awareness of sustainable development, tackling inequality and the injustice faced by people locally and across the globe.

As an educational organisation with a unique heritage of innovation and progress, we need to be a community leader in this global challenge by educating, supporting and challenging injustice wherever this is identified.

The College has incorporated a range of sector specific, local and global policies to influence and inform the development of this strategy with a key focus on the global effort to deliver the UN Sustainable Goals (SDG) by 2030.

Sustainable Development Strategy Mission Statement

We will shape the future of our community, developing a skilled considerate workforce for the green economy whilst contributing to the global effort of achieving the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Goals.
