Learning outside the Classroom

Proceeding contribution from Jonathan Lord (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 26 April 2017. It occurred during Debate on Learning outside the Classroom.

Does the Minister agree that, in order to learn outside the classroom, pupils do not need to go miles and miles away? West Byfleet Junior School in my

constituency has a tiny patch of woodland in the corner of its site. It has turned it into the Willows forest school—children follow a forest school curriculum during the course of a year. It is like going into another world. The school itself is only 50 or 100 yards away, but it is a magical place where younger children can explore nature, animals, bugs and science.
