"At Lenzie Academy, Fairtrade is studied through a cross-curricular project which has attracted the interest of Her Majesty’s Inspectorate of Education (HMIE). The Modern Languages Department’s input to this is particularly important. The HMIE visited the school to hear about the project, which they are considering promoting as best practice; they have recently highlighted it in their report as a key strength."

About Fairtrade

Millions of farmers depend on selling their crops to survive, but when prices drop it can spell disaster. If farmers earn less than it costs to run their farm, they face real hardship.

Fairtrade makes sure that farmers and producer organisations get a fair and stable price for their products to help them support their families and invest in a better future.
