Might be of some use.

Alessandro had some engineering profs from the University of Rome working with
a local high school for testing the mobile app used for BC2020.
Here’s a Comenius program for Life Long Learning of the European Union EU. The
official title of the project is: "To boost local and international tourism
with OpenStreetMap". The project's acronym is: "BoostOSM"

I hadn't thought about the programming side but C# certainly can be useful.

It needs visual studio 2017 but it has a sample program from which other
programs looking for other things could be written.
I think that would be high school level though.
There has been some work in creating activities for schools in OSM but they
would need chasing down.

Climate change planning would be good. That topic could be linked to the UN
sustainable development goals. Also, in Ontario there is a big need to
incorporate math skills into learning by doing (e.g.,
http://www.barbareeduke.com/ccmath/mathactivities.htm (adapted for OSM), or for
postsecondary GIS and programming for computer science courses.
At CivicTech Toronto Meetup last Tuesday someone pointed out David MacKay’s
book Sustainable Energy: Without Hot Air https://withouthotair.com/

So what do we need?
A hook of some type to build on?
An inventory of buildings for climate change planning? I understand in many
cities some 80% of apartment buildings are forty years old now and identifying
them and upgrading them would help with climate change emissions.
Unfortunately they tend to be privately owned and coaxing landlords to invest
money is not easy.
An introduction to basic stats?
I'm not a teacher but I'm sure we can sort something out.
We do have a tasking manager that covers Canada so tiles can be set up for a
local area.
I suggest an import first then something after that.
Thoughts
Thanks John

mappers to make it easier for schools etc to get involved?”
Good idea, John. We need a process similar to HOT for local beginners and maybe
a way of connecting the mapping to a sustainable development challenge in the
community.
