I would recommend Forest School training especially to those who already have an active interest in outdoor learning as well as to the complete novice. Leave your assumptions behind and soak everything up, you will learn more than you might expect, some of it about yourself.

What people are saying about us
The training more than met my expectations. I felt that the syllabus was broken down well into practical sessions, theory as part of the group and self study.
The course is very inspiring. It broadened my mind. I learned a lot ideas and activities that can meets children’s needs and interests, also many techniques and skills to lead activities.
