This course combines theory and practical application to help delegates embed outdoor learning across the primary curriculum. In our inspirational school grounds, delegates will have opportunities both to observe and to join in sessions including literacy, maths and project-based learning.
We will explicitly connect outdoor approaches to aspects of the ISI framework, helping delegates articulate how outdoor learning can strengthen provision.
Delegates will leave with:
Leanna founded the first full-time outdoor nursery in the UK 8 years ago. Little Forest Folk eventually expanded to 7 full-time forest nurseries offering education for 2-5 year olds.
In 2019 Leanna founded Liberty Woodland School, a progressive primary school with a mission to develop those children most likely to succeed in the 21st century through a unique outdoor environment. In 2022 Leanna expanded Liberty Woodland School to extend to secondary school pupils. Leanna remains Head of School for Liberty Woodland School primary and secondary.
