Meet our Sustainability Network Leader

Jo Pettifer

Jo Pettifer is the Climate Action Advisor Team Leader for the Midlands working within the Ashden Let’s Go Zero campaign supporting schools, nurseries and colleges on their journey to zero carbon. Her work includes supporting school leaders, Sustainability Leads, Multi Academy Trusts, local authorities and others to carry out projects that reduce emissions, inspire young people and spark change in the wider community. Before joining Ashden, Jo spent 15 years working in schools, in roles ranging from Teaching Assistant, Teacher, Assistant Head and Trust-wide Sustainability Project Coordinator. She brings this wealth of knowledge of the education sector to ensure that her team of advisors are helping schools embed Climate Action Plans into school life in a realistic and meaningful way. Let’s Go Zero support schools to meet the aims of the DfE Sustainability and Climate Change Strategy, including the expectation that all schools have a Climate Action Plan and Sustainability Lead in place by September 2025.
