What Casey (KCSIE) Cannot See: Climate Change, Foreseeable Harm, and Safeguarding Responsibility

Evidence, professional reasoning, and how educators can respond to the consultation. A poetry piece with imagery to raise awareness of the absence of climate change in the government's proposed updates to Keeping Children Safe in Education (KCSIE). Playing on how the acroymn sounds like the name 'Casey'. Performed at the Geographical Association 2026 Conference Teachmeet in Sheffield. Watch the performance, absorb the words, read the rationale, and respond to the govenment consultation before 22nd April 2026. And if that deadline has passed, whatever comes of the consultation, we must all pledge to ensure our safeguarding policies are 'climate literate'. This blog article is a narrative version containing recommended consultation responses.

There were enjoyable refreshments shared during the meet, thanks to organisers Hyve, and a large group repaired to The Fox pub to continue conversations started during the #TeachMeet.That's all I'm saying for now 😉
