Queen Margaret University in Scotland
The University’s new BA (Hons) Education Studies (Primary), which launched in 2019, has a contingent of highly skilled and experienced educators to equip new teachers with specialist outdoor skills, and it seems everyone wants to get involved!
The students have loved immersing themselves in woodland tasks and adventures but with a serious side to skills development: this is more than a stroll in the park! Students are working towards the Forest and Outdoor Learning Award (FOLA), which is a national certificate recognised by the Forest School Association and the Scottish Credit and Qualifications Framework (SCQF).
