The new Sustainability Online Resource and Toolkit for Education (SORTED) is the one-stop-shop for sustainability issues in further and higher education. Packed with a wide range of resources, SORTED has a wealth of useful tools to help you understand what sustainability means to the sector.

Covering all subject areas including carbon reduction, alternative energy, sustainable procurement and the curriculum, SORTED will keep you up to date with all the latest changes to legislation and regulations. The design of the new site makes accessing information easy with Quick Information, a Case Study Index and a Glossary all easily available from the home page.

Including all the burning issues for the sector, such as Ofsted’s new inclusion of sustainable development in inspections and the upcoming Carbon Reduction Commitment and carbon reduction targets, SORTED is THE online resource for all things sustainable allowing visitors to the website to choose their point of entry. So, whether you are at the beginning of your sustainability journey or already on the way, you will always be able to find what you need quickly and easily.

The new-look website has been developed following a detailed review, which included its content and structure and which, importantly, was based on user evaluation in the further education and work-based learning sector. As a result, SORTED has been completely rewritten and restructured making it simple and straightforward to use.

There is no subscription or registration required. Managed by the EAUC, the website is funded by the Learning and Skills Council (LSC).
