UCSI International School has officially received the Silver Award certificate from WWF-Malaysia for implementing sustainable practices in the school based on the eco-school 7-step methodology. It is a great achievement and acknowledgement of the effort and time dedicated to turning the school into a greener place.

Eco-School assessors indicated certain strengths of our Eco-School programme at UCSI Springhill. According to them, there was good integration of the Eco-School activities into the school curriculum; good involvement of pupils in environmental activities; good support from the school administration; the committee was made up of students, teachers, senior management, non-teaching staff and parents and there was good composition of different key stakeholders of the school.

Other than that, they reported that meetings were conducted frequently and documented; the environmental review involved students, teachers and non-teaching staff and results were displayed for the school community to view and there were clear linkages made between initiatives and the curriculum.

It was found that environmental education has been embedded as part of learning outcomes and PYP project exhibitions; there was good set-up for the UCSI Edublog instead of other online platforms; there was active participation in outside activities and collaboration with external partners as part of the Eco-learning process.

The School’s educational practices and activities strongly align with the SDGs as well as Eco-themes. Congratulations to UCSI Springhill International School on its efforts!
