Welcome to
Building a community of schools leading the way in environmental change.
Schools for Change is a growing community of educators, pupils and partners working together to reduce environmental impact in the UK’s education sector.
At the centre of this community is Agilico Zero, our award-winning, Circular-First Managed Print Service. By choosing a refurbished Agilico Zero multifunctional device (MFD), your school can lower its carbon footprint by 97.5% compared to purchasing new. Each device avoids over half a tonne of carbon emissions, which is equal to the annual carbon-absorbing work of 22 trees.
Together, we are rethinking how schools use technology, reduce waste and inspire the next generation to care for the planet.
Because when it comes to finite resources and endless waste, there is a better way.

We’ll identify:
- Opportunities to reduce carbon emissions
- Opportunities to reduce energy consumption and spend
- Cost savings through refurbished MFDs and optimised workflows
- Paper waste and how to digitise key processes
Get set for greener printing — and smarter budgets.
Meet Jessie the Jellyfish
A story that sparks big conversations in little classrooms.
When a primary school chooses an Agilico Zero refurbished multifunctional device (MFD), they receive a special gift — a copy of Jessie the Jellyfish, a beautifully illustrated children’s book with a powerful environmental message.
Jessie the Jellyfish follows the journey of a lonely jellyfish whose ocean home is changing due to plastic pollution. It’s an engaging, age-appropriate way to help pupils explore topics like ocean conservation, sustainability and the impact of plastic waste.
Many schools read Jessie during assemblies or use it as a starting point for activities in science, geography or art. The story helps children connect with the natural world and understand their role in protecting it.
Over 300 Agilico Zero devices have been delivered to primary schools so far, each one joined by a copy of Jessie the Jellyfish.
Schools Leading the Change
See how schools across the country are already reducing their carbon footprint with Agilico Zero, taking part in our tree planting and STEM initiatives, and inspiring sustainable thinking in the classroom. From rural primaries to large secondary schools, education settings across the UK are joining the Schools for Change community.
By switching to our award-winning, Circular-First print service, they’re cutting carbon emissions by 97.5%, keeping devices in use for longer, and saving valuable resources.
This is more than just a print solution. It represents a growing movement of schools committed to making a real difference. These schools are proving that small changes can have a big impact, creating greener learning environments and inspiring pupils to think differently about sustainability.
Together, we are building a supportive community where sharing ideas, celebrating achievements and fostering environmental responsibility are part of everyday school life. Schools for Change empowers educators and pupils alike to lead by example and demonstrate what is possible when we choose better ways to work, teach and care for the planet. If your school is ready to join this inspiring network and take meaningful steps towards sustainability, we’re here to help.
Together, we can make a lasting impact on education and the environment.

Planting Knowledge, Growing Futures
Bringing sustainability to life through outdoor learning
As part of Schools for Change, we support schools in planting trees through the Woodland Trust’s Tree Tools for Schools programme. Schools can access free tree packs along with curriculum-aligned teaching resources.
It’s a simple, hands-on way to embed sustainability into science, geography and outdoor learning. Pupils explore biodiversity, climate action and teamwork, all while making a real difference in their local environment.
Tree planting encourages long-term sustainable thinking and helps pupils take pride in protecting the planet.
Grow greener futures, one tree at a time.
Inspiring the next generation of innovators & environmental champions.
At Agilico, we believe that hands-on learning in science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) plays a vital role in preparing young people for the future. Through Schools for Change, we actively support schools by sponsoring STEM days, providing goodie bags and offering prizes that encourage curiosity and discovery.
Our support helps schools create engaging events where pupils can explore real-world challenges including sustainability, climate change and resource management through interactive experiments, workshops and team projects.
These activities foster critical thinking, collaboration and creativity while highlighting the importance of sustainable innovation. By connecting STEM learning to environmental awareness, we empower pupils to become thoughtful problem-solvers and inspire them to consider careers in green technology and science.
Together, by supporting STEM events, we are helping schools build a foundation for lifelong learning and sustainable development.
Work Experience:
Investing in the Future
Building skills and opening doors for young learners.
At Agilico, we recognise the value of practical experience in helping young people explore career options and develop workplace skills. Through Schools for Change, we aim to support schools by offering work experience opportunities when possible, giving pupils a chance to gain insight into the world of work.
These experiences can provide valuable exposure to office environments, sustainability initiatives, and innovative technologies. They help build confidence, teamwork skills and a better understanding of potential career paths, especially in areas connected to sustainability and technology.
We are committed to encouraging and supporting young people in their development wherever we can. Work experience placements form part of a broader effort to invest in future talent and nurture the next generation of change makers.
If your school is interested in partnering with Agilico to offer meaningful work experience or apprenticeships, we’d love to hear from you.
