Forest School Provision for Schools
At Forever Green Forest School we pride ourselves on delivering high quality Forest School sessions that are tailored to the students’ needs and follow their interests.
As well as being trained as Forest School practitioners, we have worked in the public education system as teachers and understand the challenges that are faced by schools to meet all of the social and emotional needs of the students in their care.
We continue to develop and refine our practice and are additionally trained in non-violent communication (NVC), Positive Behavioural Support (PBS) and Intensive Wellbeing Support in the Outdoors.

Weekly Forest School sessions, as recommended by the Forest School Association, are the most effective way of supporting students to develop their social, emotional and wellbeing skills. Through a range of games, experiences and activities we build on student’s confidence, self regulation, problem solving and teamwork, whilst developing a love and connection with the world around them.
Forest School provision is developed specifically to meet the needs of students from Nursery to Secondary School and can be used to support the curriculum covered in the classroom if desired. We can also be used as PPA cover.

It is great to start or end a topic with a celebration that gives children a practical, hands on experience to enrich their learning and make great memories.
We offer a wide range of experiences to support topics such as The Great Fire of London, Saxons, Vikings, Minibeasts and Plants, as well as supporting story telling and writing in Literacy.
We are always developing our topics that we have available, so if you don’t find what you are looking for, just ask!

As a Forest School provider, if you are looking for a different sort of INSET day to boost staff morale and bring your teaching community together, we can provide a bespoke team building and wellbeing day that won’t be forgotten.
Being in the outdoors can have an enormous positive impact on a person’s wellbeing and mental health and give time and a space to reflect. The every day pressures teachers and schools face can be overwhelming and therefore, it is essential to look after our teaching community to allow them to be the best educators they can be. Get in touch to see what we can do to support your staff.
