Home Education
An alternative approach to education
We are pleased to offer our new Forest School Session for children who are home educated or who have an agreement for flexi schooling. This will be based in our woodland at Cattows Farm
Sessions
Our weekly home ed session follows a child-led approach to learning where professional practitioners facilitate children’s interests and inspire their learning.
Our sessions are aimed towards children from 5-13 years (if you have an older child please contact us to discuss your needs).
We will have approximately 14 children per day.
Skills & Development
Children develop confidence in the environment and learn practical skills alongside developing their social, emotional, communication and problem solving skills.
They have opportunities to use tools, make fires and develop understanding and care for their environment and sustainability.
