Take your class outdoors and find out how sustainable your local area is, while carrying out fieldwork on your school’s doorstep.
We can provide bespoke sessions for your school in your own town or city, allowing your students to carry out meaningful fieldwork while removing travel costs.
Give your students the opportunity to learn about what makes a settlement sustainable, undertake fieldwork and collect their own data all while spending time exploring their local area.
We will work with you to find a suitable location for your trip(s).
The session can delivered as half day or full day depending on location and topic. Our sessions incorporate parts of the National Curriculum for Science and Geography.
