School plays an important role in character building and building of all types of concepts, including inculcating environmental values and ethics in students through education. The aim of the proposed study was to evaluate the environmental awareness among students studying in grade fourth and fifth in Government Primary School (GPS) of Sagar city, Madhya Pradesh. An Environment Awareness Test (EAT) was designed from environmental education text book running in the Government schools, it was administered on 110 students; (Grade 4th – 54 and 5th – 56) in order to measure the environmental cognitive ability (ECA) of the student’s. Independent T Test, AMOS and other statistical measures were used to analyse the data. Item wise analyses were used for analysing other facts related to environmental issues. The result reveals the facts related to various environmental issues in context to cognitive ability. The study will provide suggestions to the academicians, environmentalists and government so that they will incorporate these ideas in order to innervate students towards environmental consciousness.
