Environmental responsibility

At Study Group, sustainability is integral to both how we educate and how we operate. Through local initiatives and alignment with UN Sustainable Development Goals, we are actively reducing our environmental impact while ensuring sustainability is embedded across our organisation.

Embedding sustainability in education and campus operations

At Study Group, we actively integrate sustainability into both our teaching and the way we run our campuses. Through local initiatives and a growing alignment with the UN Sustainable Development Goals, we are working to reduce our environmental impact and ensure that sustainability is reflected across our educational programmes and day-to-day operations.

Commitment to sustainable infrastructure

We are committed to ensuring that all our premises are as sustainable as they can be within the control that we have over them. This is why 100% of our estate portfolio has been fitted with low-energy LED lighting and equipped with recycling bins. We reduce our paper use as much as we can and have a strict policy to turn off any idle monitors.
