Event Details

Our level 2 courses usually run alongside our Level 3 Forest School Leader courses, to build communities of learning and collaborative skills alongside the practical and pedagogical learning. Level 2 trainees often attend the first three modules with colleagues who are training on the Level 3 Leader course.

Training takes places in the woods at the Sylva Foundation, Long Wittenham, Oxfordshire.

The course requires the learner to support a Level 3 qualified Forest School Leader with the planning and delivery of 3 consecutive sessions and to complete two units of work, equal to 7 credits. Evidence is by a portfolio requiring an average of 54 guided learning hours with a total qualification time of 70 hours. This means there are about 16 hours personal study for the learner to do at home.

Please note: this qualification does not equip nor qualify the learner to lead Forest School sessions in the absence of a qualified L3 Forest School Leader
