The Pod and London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games
The Pod and London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games
EDF Energy is proud to be supporting London 2012 to be the
greenest Games ever. The Pod and Get Set, the official
London 2012 education programme, are working together to use the
excitement of the Games to inspire young people across the UK to
live more sustainably in school, at home and in their
communities.
Get Set is a UK-wide
programme which offers 3-19 year olds lots of opportunities to play
their part in London 2012. Through the interactive website,
children, young people and their teachers can access a whole host
of free resources, including activities, interactive games and
films which support learning about the Games and the Olympic and
Paralympic Values of friendship, excellence, respect, inspiration,
courage, determination and equality.
To explore our free resources, visit the Discover section of
Get Set.
You can get involved!
Schools who are already active on the Pod should register
with Get Set to access even more opportunities for reward and
recognition for the great work they're doing. Once you're
registered, you can use your school blog to tell us about how your
school is playing a part in London 2012 by becoming more
sustainable. And don't worry, there's no need to duplicate blogs on
the Pod - you can post a link to it on Get Set so we can follow
what you're doing!

Schools who are demonstrating a long-term commitment to the
Olympic and Paralympic Values through the Pod can apply to join the
