Two online resources, Down the Drain and A Drip in Time, encourage Key Stage 3 pupils to research the facts behind real-life issues concerning water and to communicate fact and opinion to a wider audience.

An online interactive wastewater treatment works allows pupils to explore how wastewater is treated before being returned to the environment.

Comprehensive background materials, accompanying teachers' notes and other resources, including a water audit spreadsheet, can be downloaded by all UK secondary schools from this site to support the teaching of Citizenship and Sustainability.
