The Goodwood Education Trust has been providing outdoor learning opportunities at Goodwood for almost 50 years.
The Education Trust is a recognised Provider by the Forest School Association. We are able to offer year-round, part-funded, weekly sessions of Forest School to sit within your curriculum. These are suitable for both primary and secondary children with Special Educational Needs, Social, Emotional and Mental Health needs, those who are excluded from mainstream schooling or those who are at risk of exclusion.
The groups are necessarily small, with high staffing ratios, and offer exclusive use of an outdoor learning space to create a sense of safety, security and familiarity. The benefits of Forest School practice for secondary students are powerful, offering autonomy and agency over their choices, nurturing new connections, co-operation, working with adults beyond school or family, and the freedom to try new things while reducing the fear of failure.
Currently we are fully booked for long-term Forest School. Please contact us to discuss the needs of your students and the possibility of joining our waiting list. We may be able to offer a taster session to see if your group would benefit from this approach.
“Forest School creates opportunities to be successful whilst building teamwork, self-esteem and confidence. One of our pupils has not received a suspension for over a term and a half. This remarkable progress reflects the shift in persistent disruptive behaviours. The number of lesson removals has dropped dramatically, and he has improved his engagement in lessons.”
Play, explore and enjoy a fun-filled day with woodland activities such as tracking and trailing, den/shelter building and woodland crafts including creating woodland jewellery, leaf printing, wand making, fire lighting and cooking. For primary age children, Year R-6.
