OUR WORK
OUR WORK
We train and mobilise students, parents and lifelong learners in the community
to play an active role in advancing Singapore's sustainable development agenda.
Our work contributes towards the education targets of the Singapore Green Plan 2030
and the Government's efforts to become a zero-waste nation.
Our main focus is textile waste and to find solutions for the reuse, repurposing and recycling of pre-loved school uniforms.
DID YOU KNOW?
DID YOU KNOW?
Over 420,000 students are enrolled in Primary, Secondary, Mixed Level Schools or Junior Colleges in Singapore.
Based on a Pilot Study by SMU-X in 2023, over 70% of students own 3 or more sets of school uniforms.
About 86% of school uniforms end up in general waste or are donated to organisations where further usage is mostly unknown.

Eco Track - A Platform for Schools to reduce Waste
Eco Track - A Platform for Schools to reduce Waste
Join us as a Pilot School! The Circular Classroom is partnering with Final Year students from Singapore Management University to build a scalable Digital Inventory & Waste Tracking Platform for pre-loved school uniforms. Designed for schools and PSGs, the system enables structured tracking of collection, reuse and repurposing, with real-time dashboards and AI-assisted insights.
We are currently looking for 10 pilot schools to co-develop and test the platform as part of a wider SG Eco Fund-supported initiative advancing the SG Green Plan 2030.
