Summary/Abstract: In present, the society is in a high expansion and the environmental problems are increasingly alarming and educating children in finding solutions for the Planet that is suffering and whose balance is destabilized is our mission, of all people that live here. Protecting Nature is the responsibility of people, both adults and children. Therefore, it is necessary that the ecological education must have a primary place in the didactic efforts of teachers, because students must benefit from ecological values in order to form an ecological behaviour, so necessary today, which will help them to contribute to reduce and stop the degradation of the environment and to restore the stability of the Planet. This educational research followed the degree of openness of the teachers regarding their option in approaching and carrying out ecological activities in the school institution, as well as their implementation strategies and the transdisciplinary integration of ecology within the curricular areas. Well trained teachers in what concern their ecological competences will be the start in the formation and development of ecological behaviours and a sustainable lifestyle among students, whose ecological education depends on the correlation, interdependence and connection of all forms of manifestation of ecology ( formal, non-formal and informal). The results of the research in the case of the investigated sample prove that both teachers and students are followers of the ecological activities that they carry out regularly both in the school environment and outside it.
