This training course is essential for anyone wishing to lead Forest School programmes in their own setting. It covers learning theory and practical skills, plus gives participants the confidence and knowledge needed to establish and deliver their own Forest School programmes.
Our Forest School Leader Training is facilitated by experienced leader and trainer, Adrian Goodhand, and accredited by the awarding body QNUK and is also a Endorsed traininer with the Forest school Association.. The venue is a pioneering environmental education centre within a 55-acre woodland site, who is passionate about outdoor learning and providing high-quality training.
The course covers a combination of practical skills (tool use, fire lighting, campfire cooking, knot tying, identifying and using natural materials etc.) and theoretical skills (holistic development, self esteem theory, learning theory, learning through play etc.). The course also covers how to set up a Forest School programme, risk management and sustainable use of woodlands.
