AUTHORS GET TOP MARKS FOR EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES

National Curriculum Outdoors (Bloomsbury 2020)

The series of books published by Bloomsbury, 'National Curriculum Outdoors; a complete scheme of work' co-written by Deborah Lambert, Michelle Roberts and Sue Waite, have shown themselves to be at the top of the class for educational  resources by being awarded a Learning Outside the Classroom (LOtC)  Resource Provider Award.  

Being  awarded the LOtC Resource Provider Award shows that the books offer teachers the type of high-quality learning resources that young people  can really benefit from, especially pertinent in these challenging  times. We're thrilled to get official recognition for the books.

Dr Anne Hunt, Chief Executive of the Council for Learning Outside the Classroom said: 

“Learning  outside the classroom provides some of the most valuable and memorable  experiences in a child’s school life.  The LOtC Resource Provider Award  offers teachers an assurance that a product or service will give them  the tools they need to deliver genuinely valuable learning outside the  classroom experiences to their pupils. I congratulate Debbie, Michelle  and Sue on being awarded the LOtC Resource Provider Award.” 

Some of you may remember the Natural Connections Demonstration Project,  a 4-year demonstration project in over 125 schools across the southwest  of England, supporting teachers to embed outdoor learning in schools in  Cornwall. One of the principal initial barriers to teaching outdoors  was found to be a lack of confidence in how to link outdoor activities  to curriculum objectives and so the National Curriculum Outdoors series  of books were conceived; to support teacher confidence in linking  outdoor activities to curriculum objectives and to save teachers  planning time. 

The  books provide research-based objective-led schemes of work for each  year group, taking every curriculum subject outdoors - English, maths,  science, history, geography, art and design, design and technology,  music, French language (at KS2) and RE – uniquely providing progressive  learning across the whole of Key Stages 1 & 2 aligning activities  with the National Curriculum programmes of study showing progression in  knowledge, understanding and skills whilst enabling children and  teachers to experience the health and well-being benefits of learning in  natural environments.  

Almost  two years in the writing process and we find that now, more than ever,  we are living in a time where taking the learning outdoors has become  even more important and yet teacher confidence in many cases on how to  do this effectively remains low. We believe the National Curriculum  Outdoors KS1, Y3, Y4, Y5 and Y6 books will provide valuable support for  teachers at this time.
