• Walkley Primary Welcomes Ed Miliband for Inspiring Visit

  Fri 24 Apr 2026 Mr Wallis

  Yesterday, Walkley Primary School was delighted to welcome Ed Miliband for a special visit celebrating sustainability, student voice and climate action.

   

  During his time in school, Mr Miliband toured the school and met with members of the Pupils' Executive School Council and our dedicated Eco Team. Pupils spoke passionately about their ambitions for the future, their commitment to protecting the planet, and their thoughts and feelings around climate anxiety. It was a hugely positive and rewarding conversation, with our children showing real leadership, insight and determination to make a difference.

   

  The visit also highlighted the school’s ongoing commitment to sustainability, including the impact of our solar panels. Headteacher Mr Wallis joined Mr Miliband and Tom Hunt in discussing the already evident benefits the panels are having — reducing energy costs while also inspiring climate action and deepening environmental awareness across our school community.

   

  The visit attracted wider attention too, with ITV interviewing Mr Miliband during the visit, with coverage featured on the evening news.

   

  We were proud to share with our visitors how sustainability is woven into life at Walkley Primary — not only through practical action, but through the passion and commitment of our pupils. Their thoughtful contributions showed that young people have an important voice in shaping a greener future.

   

  It was a memorable day for the whole school community and a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the impact of collective action, student leadership and our shared commitment to a more sustainable future.
