Cool Planet is Oxfam’s website for teachers. It is designed to support educators in England, Scotland, and Wales, along with their students. Using the concept of "global citizenship", it aims to assist teachers in bringing the global dimension into their classrooms. The resources are designed to inform and empower young people to work for a more just, secure and sustainable world.

The website includes a calendar of key dates for teachers, and hundreds of teaching materials on issues such as health, trade, climate change, food, and water.

Many of the resources are organised by theme:

• Climate Chaos is a collection of lesson plans on the causes and effects of climate change. Included here are ideas for ways that students can reduce their own carbon emissions and communicate to others about the importance of reducing theirs.
• Mapping our World is Oxfam’s free interactive whiteboard resource for teaching about maps, perspectives, and geography.
• Milking It is an interactive resource about small farmers and international trade designed to facilitate teaching 13- to 16-year-olds about fair trade.

Please note: Cool Planet will be relaunched as Oxfam Education in Autumn 2007. Organisers state that one goal of the new web resource will be to make it as simple as possible for teachers to bring the global dimension into their classrooms.
