If we accept that Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) is a necessary part of the further education (FE) curriculum, then the impact of this may be explored. The context of FE will be outlined and the views of students, teachers and employers explored. Although there is much good work, there are limited signs that ESD in FE is having a constructive effect on students and the workplace. The ensuing analysis responds by considering how ESD in FE could more effectively translate into benefits in the workplace, calling for systematic research to evaluate impact; working with schools, higher education and industry to develop a more joined-up, effective ESD curriculum; and nurturing social enterprises as part of broader entrepreneurial initiatives to embed sustainability in the economy.
