Eco schools partnership
We are delighted with this new eco-initiative. The quality of the uniform is excellent – you would never guess the material is made from recycled plastic and the added bonus is that it’s more hard wearing and colourfast than ordinary material.

David Luke is an official partner of Eco Schools England who have over 17,000 schools now registered with their programmes.

For those who are already an Eco school, we hope you’re progressing well through the awards and continuing to engage your school community in all the different topic areas.
Can we help?
- Lesson resources – we have worked with Eco Schools England and curriculum advisors to produce specific lesson ideas around plastic bottle recycling /waste and school uniform. Click here to find them:
- number 19 for key stage 2
- number 18 for Key stage 3
- Material for lessons – if you require any materials to support your lesson, get in touch by emailing us at sales@davidluke.com
Schools are now recognising that our Eco-uniform is a more tangible way of teaching pupils about waste recycling and encouraging social responsibility.
What Eco Schools England have to say…
“Keep Britain Tidy is excited to be working in partnership with David Luke and their eco-uniform range, which uses less energy to produce than a standard blazer and is helping to reduce landfill of waste plastic drinking bottles. Via our Eco-Schools programme, we’re looking forward to highlighting this practical demonstration of the link between improving the environment and the impact on education.”
Phil Barton, Chief Executive, Keep Britain Tidy.
It feels nice and soft, I’d like to wear it.
