From March 2025, schools across England will need to comply with new recycling legislation requiring separate bins for recyclable waste, food waste, and general waste. These changes aim to standardise recycling practices across schools, workplaces, and homes, supporting the UK’s sustainability and net-zero goals.
To help your school prepare, we’re offering a free Recycling Legislation Media Pack that includes educational posters you can place around your school designed to engage students and promote effective waste management. Empower your school’s community to make a difference while meeting the new requirements!
All waste must now be split into food waste, general waste and mixed recycling.
