Outdoor Learning Resources

Glasgow City Council Education Services has committed to all young people experiencing regular, planned outdoor learning as part of their learning journey. This document shares resource on the purpose of using outdoor learning across the curriculum and how Glasgow City Council directly supports this pedagogy.

A digital resource full of little educational nuggets that our instructors deliver as part of their ‘usual’ daily routine.

Including subjects such as maths, history and geography as well as a huge amount of environmental and skills based information we try to cover as broad of a spectrum as possible.

The hope is to inspire interest and promote further investigation and questions as to why, how and what we know about the great outdoors.
