The Growing Schools website has been designed to support teachers in using the ‘outdoor classroom’ as a resource across the curriculum for pupils of all ages.

Growing Schools is a government programme which aims to encourage and inspire all schools (nursery, primary, secondary and special) to use the outdoor classroom, both with and beyond the school grounds, as a context for learning across the curriculum. It focuses in particular on food, farming and the countryside. Schools can use the site to find information on health and safety, funding sources, published research, training, resource materials and places to visit and news and events. It also provides case studies on outdoor learning and school grounds development.
