The Circle of Life Rediscovery CIC Forest School Leader training starts in March 2027 with FSA-endorsed trainer Marina Robb and friends. Our course is much more than a qualification.

It is a complete Forest School Leader development programme, combining a recognised Level 3 qualification with practical woodland training, expert support and lifetime access to over 100 Outdoor Teacher resources.

Our course includes nine face-to-face practical learning days where participants learn across the changing seasons at our stunning woodland located at Mill Woods, near Laughton, East Sussex, BN8 6BP.

What do people say about our training?

“I am overwhelmed by the support and village community. Community that I have discovered.”

– Circle of Life Rediscovery CIC, ITC Level 3 Certificate for Forest School Leaders Trainee

“The training so far has been exceptional! Everyone has been made to feel so welcome and included. Usually at training courses, I feel nervous or completely out of my comfort zone – however, here, I have felt at ease and comfortable to be myself. The range of activities has been just – wow! Thank you.”

– Circle of Life Rediscovery CIC, ITC Level 3 Certificate for Forest School Leaders Trainee

“This has been a lovely holistic training. The teaching has been very interactive, supportive, real learning. I’ve been really inspired speaking to the leaders and look forward to more conversations.”
