Headteacher Update Podcast: Outdoor learning
Description
This episode is packed full of advice, ideas, and tips for delivering effective and impactful outdoor learning in the primary school.
Our expert panel kick off by discussing nine tenets of best practice in delivering outdoor and nature-based learning in schools.
We also talk about the benefits that outdoor learning can bring, including the skills it can help pupils to develop.
With lots of ideas for activities and projects, we discuss how outdoor or nature-based learning can be set up in urban school settings or in schools with restricted space. We discuss ideas and tips for making outdoor learning work when it’s cold, wet, windy too.
Also, how can outdoor learning be used to break-down inequality and disadvantage and offer a more inclusive education? And how can it support pupil mental health and wellbeing?
Finally, we discuss how we can best integrate and plan outdoor learning into the wider curriculum.
