Getting Outside The Classroom - Training FOR Teachers

Many teachers would like to get outside – to make learning more fun, more contextual, to get some air, to breathe… but they are worried…about managing their class, about the weather, about giving themselves more work, about what they are allowed (and not allowed) to do.

We recognise that this desire exists but also that people have barriers to realising it.

Outstanding schools have always used outdoor learning as an integral part of their whole school approach to education and the curriculum.

They recognise the benefits for pupil achievement, personal development and physical and mental well-being.

If you want to:

  • EXPLORE AND USE YOUR OUTDOOR SPACE FOR TEACHING AND LEARNING

  • HAVE THE CONFIDENCE TO DO SO

  • TAKE PART IN AND EXAMINE A SERIES OF PRACTICAL, CURRICULUM-LINKED ACTIVITIES OUTSIDE

  • LEARN HOW TO MANAGE RISK APPROPRIATELY…

then we have the course for you.

Tim worked with colleagues within the Institute for Outdoor Learning and the Awarding body ITC First to develop and create the ITC First Level 3 Award in Learning Beyond the Classroom – the only nationally regulated Award in Outdoor Learning (Ofqual and RQF).

We run both open courses and whole-school training to give you the confidence to make outdoor learning part of what you offer every day, confidently and without giving yourself more work.
