Forest School
Forest School is an inspirational process which offers all learners regular opportunities to achieve and develop confidence and self-esteem through hands-on learning experiences in a woodland or natural environment with trees. Forest School is a specialised learning approach that sits within and complements the wider context of outdoor and woodland education.
Led by our Level 3 Forest School Practitioner, our Forest School sessions are tailored to meet the needs of our students at Essa Academy where all participants are viewed as:
-
Equal, unique and valuable
-
Competent to explore and discover
-
Entitled to experience appropriate risk and challenge
-
Entitled to choose, and to initiate and drive their own learning and development
-
Entitled to experience regular success
-
Entitled to develop positive relationships with themselves and other people
-
Entitled to develop a strong, positive relationship with their natural world
