Where's worst?

This task uses a Problem-Solving Approach and is designed to take approximately 3 hours of teaching time.

The resource enables teachers to lead pupils through the problem of how to select areas of the school environment to improve. As a group they will decide on the characteristics to use to judge the environment using a technique from geography (EQI).
