Are inviting you to an interactive session to ask questions and explore ways to get involved in the “Be the Change” program and work toward achieving AGENDA 2030.
This course is heavily aligned with all SDG’s
Starting on 19th July 2022, this 10-week course will see students working collaboratively to create change within their local communities, with an aim to complete 170 actions that are in line with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
The students will use purpose-based educational activities to create and evaluate change within their community and beyond. All students will be invited to attend the global World Children’s Day Upschool Conference on November 20th, 2022.
This is a self-paced course (all lessons are pre-recorded) so you can start whenever you want and do it at your own pace.
It will culminate on November 20, 2022 – which is World Children’s Day. To celebrate this momentous occasion, children all around the world will be invited to spend their day listening to 17 keynote presentations delivered by 17 groups of amazing children from around the world, who have proved that change starts with us and that little actions within our local community can have a big impact globally.

The course will last around 10 weeks and the mission is to convince your community that small changes can have a huge impact!
Connection: Students will first discover their place in the world and understand the interconnection and impact of all actions we take.
Creating Change: The children will collaborate to persuade the community to change the way they live to make the world a better place for everyone.
Speak Out: Once the students have begun to see the impact of their work, they will collate their ideas and reflections and present these to the rest of the world to read!
Global Conference: Children all around the world will be invited to spend their day listening to 17 keynote presentations delivered by 17 groups of amazing children from around the world (as judged by our selection panel), who have proven that change starts with us and that little actions within our local community can have a big impact globally.
The “Dear World” Book Will be Published: We are going to collate the words of students across the globe to produce Volume 1 of our Coffee Table Book “Dear World… The Voice of Our Generation”. Every person who submits a message will be published in this book. Meaning every voice is heard and every voice counts.

We take 'real-world' to the next level by designing projects with 'real' outcomes.
We want to teach the entrepreneurs of tomorrow to operate with purpose and ethics.
Our projects bring children, teachers and communities together to work towards a common goal.
We inspire creative thinking and dynamic problem solving. These are the skills for tomorrow.
From graphic design & film making through to creative writing and storytelling (and everything in between)
“It has been a privilege for our children to be a part of initial Upschool program focussing on creating a Changemaking Community. Our students have been engaged from the outset, and we have seen a measurable improvement in not only their literacy skills but also in their empathy towards others and their understanding of how to connect to community both locally and abroad. The resources that provided are outstanding and have kept our students motivated towards their goal.
It has transformed the way that we approach teaching within the school, giving our students an authentic purpose and opportunity to make a real world difference.
As a school we are committed to the work that UpSchool are doing and are looking forward to our next work with them”
Daniel Frew (Principal, Lower Plenty Primary School, Melbourne)

It’s 100% free – yes. Nothing to pay to be involved.
We have 5 year old children right through to adults participating. It’s differentiated and open to everyone.
Either. Whole school engagement is the best way to have maximum impact, but it certainly can be done by one class or by one year level. You can even use it as an extension program for a small number of students too if that works for you.
Absolutely. Anyone can join!
No, not at all. Individuals (adults and children) can go through the course.
