Countryside Alliance launch Outdoor Education report

The Countryside Alliance Foundation recently launched a brand new report, "Outdoor education – the countryside as a classroom". The Foundation believes there should be an entitlement to outdoor learning in the National Curriculum to ensure it becomes part of every child's education. This key recommendation was made in evidence given to Parliament . In addition, The Foundation also presented the Children's, Schools and Families Committee some research showing the significant demand for outdoor education among teachers and children and the low risks of well managed outdoor education. The Foundation's report has been welcomed by Natural England, The Field Studies Council and the Association of Personal Injury Lawyers.
