“The beauty of embedding teaching outdoors in every school’s new  normal is that it has the capacity to achieve so many outcomes that we  wish for our children, our society and our planet going forward”

“I think the language used in the key stage 2 books is enough to  convince even the hardened ‘indoor’ teacher that the outdoors has much  to offer and these books give a step by step introduction of how it can  be incorporated into their scheme of work along with their other  planning.”

“The  National  Curriculum Outdoors books are a fantastic resource for  primary schools.  When delivering both face to face and on-line  training, I have shared  them with teachers and they have been received  very well.  The books enable teachers to use their whole school sites  and local  areas as their learning spaces, and encourage active,  imaginative and  engaging curriculum teaching and learning. The books  articulate that  every space can be a learning space and that learning   outside the classroom is not a subject. It is an approach to effective   pedagogy.”

“I  love these books so much I  want another complete set can I get the 25%  CLOtC members discount! All  the teachers in my school are using them  because the activities work  with whole class groups. The children in Y6  requested a repeat  of an activity done the previous lesson they  enjoyed it so much. I am  labelling the garden in French after half term  using the mfl sequence of  lessons.”

“We  have just  delivered our second CPD day for teachers based on the  books.  We had 40  Primary School teachers come along for each day and  the feedback has  been excellent.  We used lesson plans from 6 subject  areas  in the books at Key Stage 1 and 2.  Teachers felt inspired by the   creative way in which they could deliver these national curriculum   outcomes and in particular, the subject areas you wouldn’t necessarily   think about teaching outdoors such as music and RE.   The teachers used  the ideas from the books to think of other topics  they could teach  outside and therefore, it gave them general confidence  and motivation  to develop their outdoor learning curriculum.  The books  are easy to  use and come with some supporting  materials on the Bloomsbury website.   We can’t wait for volume 2!”
