Lead Sustainability in Your School with SS&L’s Schools Green Lead Apprenticeship

At SS&L, we’re passionate about changing lives through learning – and that includes the lives of your pupils, staff and entire school community. That’s why we’re excited to launch our brand-new Schools Green Lead apprenticeship, starting in September 2026! 🌿
