Summary

 

Studies show that outdoor learning has many benefits - reducing stress, improving moods, boosting concentration and increasing a child’s engagement at school. Therefore, outdoor learning has a part to play in our everyday teaching, never more so than now.How do we make sure this is safe in the current climate?
